This either in PHP will help you to sends the files:
<?php

$file = 'folder/yourfile.zip' ; //Any file *.*

if (! file) {
    die('file not found'); //Or do something 
} else {
    // Set headers
    header("Cache-Control: public");
    header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
    header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$file");
    header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
    header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
    // Read the file from disk
    readfile($file); 
}

?>
