If the book is showing as “download in progress” but the link is not opening when you click on it, then the issue is most likely technical and not related to your account. This usually happens when the server is overloaded, the link is temporarily down, or the file format is not supported by your device.

You can try these steps to fix it:

1. Refresh the page and try again after some time.

2. Use a different browser like Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.

3. Switch to a laptop/PC if you are trying on a mobile device.

4. Clear browser cache and allow pop-ups if prompted.

5. If the platform provides multiple download buttons (PDF/preview/alternate mirror), try the alternate one.

6. If the book is large, make sure your internet connection is stable.

If none of this works, contact the support team of the platform and mention the book title and screenshot — they will either fix the link or share another way to access the file.

Most of the time the issue gets resolved after trying again later or switching the browser/device, so don’t worry.
