I'm trying to download some videos from dropbox that the account owner has disabled downloads for. Are there any tools or methods to bypass this and download them anyway other than screen recording?

this is iffy, but you can use the inspector and try to find which of the files is the video you want, then download those manually. Less iffy, use obs-studio and record the videos like how we used to do music in cassettes (in real time).
