On Windows client files are not getting downloaded.
In the debug logs the below error is coming:

FileAgent_media_Id_1|14-06-2019 18:39:15|Info|FileAgent - Run|Web Exception in Run: The remote name could not be resolved: ‘xibodocker200_cms-web_1’

Resolved now !

This issue was due to incorrect configuration of nginx reverse proxy.

nginx was not forwarding the http_host and scheme(http/https) related headers due to which the CMS server was perceiving the host as xibodocker200_cms-web_1 and scheme as http which led to this malformed/internal URL for file download.

Adding the following settings in nginx revers proxy and a restart after clearing the cache resolved the issue.

    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
