When you upload a file in the files section of a product, the system will automatically add a link to the order notifications and an entry in the downloads area of the customer once the order is confirmed. There is nothing to configure. And these links can only be used by the customer who made the purchase so there is nothing to do for that either.

Please note that the customer need to be log with his account in order to download the file otherwise he will be redirected to the login screen or have an "error page".
