Well, I have not any previous version in my computer anymore. So, I can not import the file.
Could you please upload such file and to give me more instructions? If will I import the file I will automactically have the links list available for all uses?
Thank you!

I'm not sure if I understand now. Why would you want to import your old links if you don't have any old links?

What was the original issue anyway?

Yes, it is right, it was the original issue.
And I have my old links. Before updating the program, I have exported my old links in a text file.
Now everytime I run the program, I have to import all my links from the .txt file to download the files. And it is not rare that I start to download a file that I have ever downloaded before. It wastes time, because the services always requires a waiting time for a new download.
I just want to keep all my links in the program every time I run it.
I hope you could understand me. Sorry. English is not my native language and I may make mistakes.

@JALAR we need to see a content of your config directory to help you more

Thanks for your care.
It would be no problem to forward the config content. However, as I do not find this folder in my system, I attach a picture for you to visualize the content that FreeRapid keeps in the system.
Is everything alright?
Awaiting for your answer and I hope to see my problems resolved.
Thanks for all.

If you have ever started FRD, you will have that configuration directory (in the place shown in the link Vity posted). The easiest way to access it is to open the log directory (Help > Browse to log file) and then press the "Up" button to access the upper directory. That is the configuration directory.

I got the same problem. However, after I delect the FRD folder and reopen frd.exe. Everything is fine now...

you can go to FRD directory by C: users-(your user's name)-Appdata-Roaming-VitySoft-FRD.

Hope it may help you.

I am sorry for a silence. I could not come to Internet yesterday.
And as you have asked for, I uploaded the FRD directory in a .zip file.
I hope you will find a solution for my problem, because I need to have my links into the program every time I run it.
I did not try (yet) what the colleague @vicheth suggested, because I think it is important for you (developers) to check what happens in my system. If you do this, you may prevent the same bug (and even others) in the future.
I really enjoy to use FreeRapid and I thank for all you have been doing to help me.
Best wishes!

@JALAR, just like I said before, delete filesList.xml from the configuration directory and everything will work fine.

@JALAR from looking at your FRD directory, the new database "frd.odb" size should always be larger than 0 bytes
and frd.odb$ should only exist while FRD is open. ("frd.odb" replaces both "filesList.xml" and "history.xml")
I think your antivirus may have prevented the database being created correctly.
Please follow these steps to test

## UNDO 0.9 FILE CHANGES
- DELETE INVALID 0.9 DATABASE FILES

frd.odb
frd.odb$
- DELETE NEWER 0.86 FILES
filesList.xml
filesList.xml.backup
history.xml
history.xml.backup
- RENAME IMPORTED FILES
filesList.xml.imported TO filesList.xml
filesList.xml.backup.imported TO filesList.xml.backup
history.xml.imported TO history.xml
history.xml.backup.imported TO history.xml.backup

## STARTING FRD 0.9
- CLOSE ALL OTHER PROGRAMS
- DISABLE YOUR ANTIVIRUS (for a short time only)
- RUN FRD 0.9

donate to FRD prompt should appear
and your 0.86 list should load into 0.9
- CLOSE FRD
check the for the new database file "frd.odb", it should have size
If still 0 bytes something else is the problem

- FRD 0.9 SHOULD KEEP YOUR LIST AND WORK NORMALLY NOW
- ENABLE YOUR ANTIVIRUS

- STOP USING FRD 0.86
- NEVER USE FRD 0.86 AGAIN
