I am unable to download multiple files at a time, the download option appears when I am in each filed.  Is there a fix for this?  It's very time consuming to download each file at a time.  Help!

Unfortunately the download option doesn't appear, it only appears when I am in a document (not file).  I would like to download the filed and the contents at one time.
