If you are not satisfied with the one GB restriction, you can install the Dropbox desktop application and enjoy a larger download limit. As such, go to the official Dropbox webpage and download the desktop client installer. Launch it to get the client up and running. Now you can open the shared Zip file preview and select the Add to my Dropbox option. The file will be automatically synced so that you can open it from your personal computer.

Click on Open to allow your File Explorer open the file. And here is an option for those who are not keen on using the Dropbox desktop client: in such a case, what you should do is simply break you large Zip file into smaller parts so that the person you are willing to share it with could download them separately.

You might as well automate the splitting process by using a file compression utility. For instance, the free 7-Zip tool will come in very handy for this purpose. Thus, you are free to install it on your PC.

Then right-click on the file you wish to split and configure the utility to break the Zip up into smaller files. You can save them to your My Dropbox desktop folder or upload them directly to Dropbox. Click OK in the tool to get the job done. If the size of the shared Zip you wish to download does not exceed the Dropbox download limit, it is time you checked your hard drive — the chances are it does not have enough storage space, which leads to the Zip file is too large Dropbox issue.
