      ​@tiagoalsimao I recreated the file from the video. Here ya go! I’ll also be uploading this to a different server for more stability. Sorry for the inconvenience.

      For the sake of others searching on this topic, the file has now been hosted here:

        Good day,

        I’m replying to my own question, as I just found a workaround to this bug, this time for the fullemployeedata.xlsx in Getting Started Using Repetition with Selection

        For info, I’m using Chrome.

        The problem, for me, occurs when I use left-click to download the file. This will send me to the error page with “Access denied”.

        To overcome this, I follow the steps bellow:

        1. Refresh page (CTRL+R)
        2. Right-Click on the link > Select Open link in new tab

        This will download the file properly.

        Hope this helps!
        Best regards!
