Hi, I want to download my text file from SAS Studio to local. When I click on download file it starts, when it reaches half of it then it gives me network error issue. File size is 28 mb.

That's a time out issue then. Your network is either disconnecting or has a setting where if there's a bad download it disconnects.
Do you have a high speed reliable internet connection?

This could be a firewall or timeout. Is this an environment in your company (where a SAS admin could help) or are you using SAS OnDemand for Academics?

I don't think 28MB should be a problem, but is it possible for you to break the file into smaller sets and download? What type of file? Excel? Data set?

Not sure if this is the issue, but I would suggest NOT using your sasuser..v94 folder - create another folder under files(Home) by right-clicking -> New -> Folder & use that folder
