Outdated Figshare Download URL #19

Hi,

I noticed that the download code in the setup notebook (Setup.ipynb) currently uses the following Figshare URL pattern:

url = f"https://figshare.com/ndownloader/files/{file}"

On my side, this resulted in downloaded files with size 0 bytes.

Replacing it with the official Figshare downloader host resolved the issue:

url = f"https://ndownloader.figshare.com/files/{file}"

So it seems that the current notebook relies on an outdated or fragile Figshare download endpoint.

A small update to the notebook would likely prevent failed or empty downloads for future users.

Thanks!
