I am using Firefox 48 on my windows 10 laptop and I am not able to download the zip file from the browser from my university website, its downloading the file but not as a zip file but in some other format, I tried doing it on the android application after updating to latest version and the same problem occurred. I tried downloading it using my edge browser and it worked. I have uploaded the photos, you can check the file format in which its is downloading in that.
