Can find the *.zip generated by the plugin inside the file system of the server.

There is no zip file stored on the server - the zip file is generated dynamically as you download it.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I'm having issues using firefox. I click on the download and the download never completes (miss 3mb or so). Using Chrome worked fine. Can I help in some debugging in my side? Firefox 67.0

In case someone else encounters this issue...

The .zip file that this plugin creates was not opening for me. I renamed the file .tar, and then I was able to open it just fine.

@ishimarumakoto - i'm not sure what the problem would be with firefox specifically... I tried it myself and it's working fine.

@ryanadiaz - when you changed the extension, did it result in opening the file with a different program? I don't see why just changing the extension would make a different.

@andrejpavlovic - I was using Chrome. It generated a .zip file and allowed to fully download it. Opening it or extracting it using 7zip resulted in an error. I renamed it .tar, and then 7zip opened it with no issue.

Could be specific to using 7zip.
