Hello!

I use FreeRapid Downloader and I really appreciate this application. However, there is one big limitation/bug of this application. Imagine that I have spend five hours, using internet and adding new files in the meantime to the list of downloads in FreeRapid Downloader. Then the system crashed (it didn't hibernate properly because my battery in notebook is broken). After restarting it (I use frd.sh in Ubuntu), i.e. running system and application, the whole list (where previously there were about fifty or more links added) is erased - there is no single file waiting to be downloaded. The only way is to search through the history of webbrowser and add those links again. That takes really much time and is pointless activity. The list of downloads in FreeRapid Downloader shouldn't disappear after crash. It should be saved all the time (or at least I should be able to force this activity easily, at any moment I'd like to) at disc, so that I can (or the application can automatically) recover the list.

Regards!

There is a backup file.
See configuration directory and file links.txt.

Thank you for answer!

I don't see configuration directory or links.txt. There are directories: doc, lib, lookandfeel, plugins, search, tools.

Regards!

The configuration folder is probably ~/.frd on the Unices.
