Basic-auth required for password-protected file #20

When a user accesses a password-protected file, the basic-auth dialog will be be prompted. This is not the expected behaviour as the basic auth should only be required when uploading.

I need to understand this a bit more.

When uploading a file you can choose to set a password. When that link is shared, anyone with the link will need to enter that password that was set to obtain the file. In this way, that is expected behavior.
