Solved

Can I replace a file but keep the same link? The link has already been shared with clients but I need to replace the version of the file.

If you replace the file with one named identically and in the same place, subsequent visitors will get the updated version.

Yeah, confirmed, now it generates a new unique aleatory code for the same file in the same location, at least within the app for mac.

Maybe the new shared links policy broken this feature.

Thanks, i'll try with a ticket.
