Hi,

I want to disable the zip function when I download a folder.

In the main pydio options, I disabled zip creation.  
In my server, I modified the file ConfServices.php in /pydio/core/src/pydio/Core/Services/ ; On the line : zipEnabled() I added return false;

Look at that, my file ConfServices :

/\*\*  
\* ZIP FEATURES  
\*/

```
/**
 * Check if the gzopen function exists
 * @static
 * @return bool
 */
public static function zipEnabled()
{
    return false;
}

/**
 * Check if users are allowed to browse ZIP content
 * @static
 * @return bool
 */
public static function zipBrowsingEnabled()
{
    return false;

}

/**
 * Check if users are allowed to create ZIP archive
 * @static
 * @return bool
 */
public static function zipCreationEnabled()
{
    return false;

}

```

Despite all that, it does not work, my folders are downloaded in zip.

Sorry my english, but i’m french.

Thank you all

-Camille

hi,  
look for the “download” action inside the `access.fs/fsActions.xml` file and you should see `file="true"` and `folder="true"`. Set folder to “false”, clear plugins cache (rm -f data/cache/plugins\__._) and it should be gone.
