Describe the Bug

Running gdown 4.4.0 and 4.7.1 against a "Anyone with the Link" Google Drive file stopped working in the last 20 or so hours with the error:

Access denied with the following error:

 	Cannot retrieve the public link of the file. You may need to change

This Stack Overflow user and post seemed to find a workaround in gdown 4.6.0.

The browser did / does work.

Expected Behavior

The gdown request succeeds without error.

To Reproduce

$ gdown <url> --output <path>

Hey guys. Sorry for being late (I missed the notifications), but this should be fixed now via #295 and the latest release.
