Files not updating after replace in jDownloads 4.x

Hi everyone, I'm using jDownloads 4.x on Joomla 4, and I've noticed an issue when I replace an existing file in the Downloads section. After uploading a new version of the file (same name), the frontend still serves the old file, even after clearing Joomla cache and browser cache.

I also tried changing the file name and reassigning it, but sometimes the old version still appears for some users. Could this be related to server-side caching or how jDownloads handles file updates?

What is the correct way to fully replace a file so that users always download the latest version immediately?
