And how are you triggering the download? An HTML download link? Javscript? Something else? – Lewis Apr 01 '19 at 10:21

java script 'window.open' – Akhil Apr 01 '19 at 10:22

You can use URL encoding , if you are calling from javascript.
For example:
var uri = "download.asp?path=data/DIR Images/Img1.jpg";
var downloadURI = encodeURI(uri);
you will get the URL as
download.asp?path=data/DIR%20Images/Img1.jpg
The encoded url will work fine.

You can try using encodeURIComponent() - to encode params , Please check this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75980/when-are-you-supposed-to-use-escape-instead-of-encodeuri-encodeuricomponent – Siva Kalidasan Apr 01 '19 at 12:31
