Support for jDownloads 3 has been ended
Since 17 August 2023 Joomla.org has discontinued support for Joomla 3.x. Therefore, we will no longer offer official support for our Joomla 3 jDownloads version 3.9.x from January 2024.
Please update your website to the latest Joomla version (Joomla 4 or Joomla 5) as soon as possible. Afterwards, please update jDownloads to the latest published version. The longer you delay, the more difficult the upgrade process for your website is likely to be.

I have set up some downloads but can only download them if logged in. Everywhere I have checked in permissions shows Guests and Public can download items, but unless I log in, as soon as I click on a category I am requested to log in. Am I missing something obvious?

HiSounds to me that you have either not set the permissions on the Categories or more likely you have set view access to Registered or something other than Public.
You can check the access level  by clicking on Categories in backend.  If they are not set to Public then the easiest way to change is to use the Batch facility setting it to no for move or copy and the setting the required Access level
Please let me know
