    It shouldn’t be that hard Michael (MichaelWeet); sorry to hear that you’re feeling this way. Kindly bear in mind that you could still download your files using our website in smaller batches if you wish to avoid downloading our desktop app. From there, you can store them on any other location on your pc/ Mac just as any other file/ folder. 
     
    You may give my suggestion a go whenever you find some spare time & please do let me know how you get on with my advice on our discussion here!
