I would like to invite you to share the specs of your machine and the Internet connection.

- Specs of the machine?
- Any proxies? VPNs? Firewalls?
Troubleshooting Guide for ZimaOS “Share via Link” Feature
If you’re unable to use the “Share via Link” feature in ZimaOS, here’s a step-by-step guide to help you troubleshoot and resolve the issue:
-
Check Your Internet Connection
- Make sure your device is connected to the internet. Since “Share via Link” likely uses peer-to-peer technology, a stable connection is required.
- If you’re on a restricted network (e.g., at work or school), firewalls or network settings might block peer-to-peer connections. Try switching to a different network if possible.
-
Verify Browser Compatibility
- Ensure you’re using a browser that supports this feature. Recommended browsers include:
- Google Chrome
- Mozilla Firefox
- If you’re using a different browser, switch to one of these and test again.
-
Clear Browser Cache and Cookies
- Cached data or cookies might interfere with the feature. Clear your browser’s cache and cookies, then try using the link again.
-
Check Antivirus or Security Software
- Security software in the router might block peer-to-peer connections or web features. Temporarily disable your antivirus and test the link.
- If this resolves the issue, adjust your security settings to allow ZimaOS or WebTorrent connections.
-
Look for ISP Policy
- The Internet connection in some regions is prevented from P2P protocols. Contact your ISP or ask users in your region to eliminate this possible issue.
Additional Tips
Look forward to your feedback.
Thank you, the browser was the problem. It did not work with my Firefox. I tried with LibreWolf, which is a Firefox fork and it worked.
