Thank you all for the replies. Based on this feedback, I have tried downloading files using Chrome, Firefox, and I.E.. I have dug into the settings of each to try to find a security setting that might be causing this. I also tried the email link method with each, and still no luck. 1k corrupt files every time.

Hi BrianL,
since many people are reporting the same problem using different thread, would it be possible to merge them or to create a single thread for this issue?
In this way, everybody would be aware of any solution and I think that it could also be useful to understand the amount of people affected by it.
