Hey @Hennecent evan, thanks for posting your query to our Community.

When you say that the link is blocked, can you give me some more info about this?

Indeed, if the person that sent you the link, deletes/moves the file from their account, the link will break and you won't be able to access the files there anymore.

I hope this clarifies!

To tell you the truth, I paid to have this video. but I didn't have time to look at it. and this person blocked the link. Couldn't you unlock it?

Hi @Hennecent evan, if the owner has removed it, then I'm afraid there's not much that we can do on our end.

I'm also unsure as to what you mean when you say they blocked the link.
