You Want A Blog Like This?
For Questions, Inquiries, 
While
Google aims for Drive to be a competent Dropbox competitor, there's one
small but key feature that isn't easy: sharing direct download links.
Fortunately, you can create your own.
As tech
tips blog Digital Inspiration points out, most of the links Google gives
you to share will open a file in the web viewer. While this is nice,
you may not want to make the recipient jump through hoops just to
download those TPS reports. If you want to share a direct link, simply
change the format of the link from this:>
https://drive.google.com/file/d/FILE_ID/edit?usp=sharing
change to this
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=FILE_ID
Note that you'll need to grab the file ID from the original link
(highlighted in the image above) and append it to the end of the new
link. With the new format, any link you share will automatically
download to your recipient's computer.
