Why are my files downloaded to cloud storage services instead of local storage?

On Puffin Secure Browser version 7.8.x, files are downloaded to your selected cloud storage services first, then the files are scanned for viruses and malware. When the files are deemed safe, you can then sync the files to your device using the cloud storage providers' client apps.

On Puffin Secure Browser version 7.9.x onwards, downloading to local storage is allowed. If Puffin 365 was activated with a corporate email on your device, your administrator may have turned off download privileges. Please contact your administrator for further details
