First, navigate to Plugin -> Add New and search for ‘Export Media Library’. Install the plugin, and don’t forget to activate it. 

Now, navigate to Media -> Export. 

You have two folder structure options, single folder with all files, and a nested folder. If you want all files in one folder, then choose single; otherwise, choose the nested folder. You may also compress the files. Please remember that compression requires more time than a regular download.
