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.

Hi
Obviously the documentation cannot cover every conceivable method of setting up but you should be able to get some idea.  Permissions allow things to be done, Access Level allow them to be seen.  So we give Download Permission to the Registered Group in every top level Category, and essure that all permissions oof sub categories and downloads are Inherited.  This is their default state.  Then you ensure that the Access Level of all the top level Categories is set to Public.  Check that all component permissions are set to Inherited.

That should work AOK
