Basic Fixes

Fix 1: Rule Out Issues With Your File

The file size limit for free Discord users is 25MB, while Nitro Basic and Nitro users can upload up to 50MB and 500MB, respectively. Discord can’t upload a file if it exceeds these limits. In that case, you might encounter the “Your files are too powerful” or “Upload failed” error.

Hence, it’s a good idea to check the file size. To do so, select the file you want to share > press theAlt + Enter(Windows) orCommand + I(Mac) keyboard shortcut.

It’s also possible that the file you are uploading is damaged. Try uploading a different file on Discord to see if the issue is limited to a specific file.

Fix 2: Clear Discord Cache

Like any other app, Discord accumulates cache data on your computer or phone to load faster. However, once this data becomes old or corrupted, it can interfere with the app’s performance. Tryclearing the Discord cache on your computer or mobileand see if that solves the problem.
