We have disabled the openwith explorer feature in document library's ribbon.Now customer wants to download multiple documents in one time.How to achieve this feature? Is this possible through any custom action or with the help of any custom coding?

I have gone through the devianpoint download as a zip file. but this wsp doesnt work in  SP 2013 and its custom action in the ribbon is not enabled- its greyed out- in SP 2013 doc lib's Files tab.

Note: http://www.deviantpoint.com/post/2010/05/08/sharepoint-2010-download-as-zip-file-custom-ribbon-action.aspx
Is there any otehr solution liek through powershell or through SSOM / CSOM ?

Its strange that MS could not  think about implementing this as an OOTB functionality, in all versions of SP,if we disable the "Open with Explorer" command.

Hi,

According to your description, you might want to download multi files from SharePoint document library in one time.

I suggest you can get the documents array list using lists.asmx web service and then you can download the files using filestream.

Here is a detailed code demo for your reference:

READ SHAREPOINT DOCUMENT LIBRARY USING C# AND DOWNLOAD ALL DOCUMENTS TO LOCAL RESOURCE FOLDER

Thanks

Best Regards
