It looks like this is the only thread posted this year. Has everyone else given up with FRD?by Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
Thanks for the reply. I had been using the beta version since it was first released- and it worked wonderfully. It stopped just before my last pc gave up the ghost. Now, with Windows 11 on a new pc it does nothing. I have tried several times and now I am just about ready to wipe it off the computer and forget about it. It does not help when this site just ignores everything I have asked, and eby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
I'm not sure, but it looks (to me) like FRD is no longer working. I have tried updating the plug-in's and there is no connection to server. I also tried 'look for new version' and the same message arrived. This started on Win7 (I think it was 7) a few months ago, but the PC went wrong so now the new one has Win11 and the problem is still there. I then came to the site to see if there was a newby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
Hello, I have visited the site several times in the last few months to try and find out if there is a problem with FRD for everyone, or if it is just me having a problem. Could anyone please let me know as there not many new posts here and I'm beginning to think the program is not functioning anymore. Maybe I am just being over optimistic by hoping I am wrong, but until someone lets me know I wiby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - Tips&Tricks

I should have waited before sending in the last comment. I just tried to delete the program I was downloading and an error message arrived. I tried sending it via the box that opened but it would not. It did however say Fatal error. So something is not right. Maybe it's Win11 not liking something, or the new java is not doing its thing. The second program I clicked on is still working. I just keeby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins
I just tried the beta version again. I unticked the allow tor in the options for the BBC plugin. I clicked resume and the download started for about a minute. It then stopped. I clicked resume and it started. I have paused the download as I was only using it to see if the problem was sorted. I'll come back if anything else happens.by Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins
For months now I have been using the 1.0 beta version with no problems up until today. When I copy a link from the BBC it does not open the box with the link in it. If I click on add URL and then copy from clipboard, it has nothing to copy- or the 'copy from' has not registered it. As a possible solution, I have just downloaded v0.9u4 and then updated the plugins. For some reason it refuses to doby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins
I'm not sure if I needed to start this as a new topic but I did post it in the same place as my last visit here- a year ago all but 4 days. I appologise if it is unnecessary to start a new topic but here we go with the same post.... I've been using the Beta version for over a year(ish) and only had one problem that I told you about back then.

Hi, Just an afterthought. The programme/link I was trying is I'm not sure it is relevant but after looking through the forum I noticed you have asked someone before which link they were trying. Once again cheersby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
Hello again, I've been using the Beta version for over a year(ish) and only had one problem that I told you about back then. However, the thing that has started happening again is that the download stops and I am asked if I want to overwrite, skip or cancel. It stopped happening for months and now it is occasionally happening again. The other thing is that the itv.com is not working. I get tby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
My problem has stopped now. Maybe it was just one of those things but whatever it was it is no more. FRD is great. What more can I say..by Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
For the last few times I have used the Beta version the download stops and I am asked if I want to overwrite, skip or cancel the download. This is a new one for me. I've been using the beta version for a few months now and so far it is great. Any ideas?by Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
I just tried the youtube download and it works. Happy days. Thank you. While the youtube download was happening I hi-lited the BBC download and clicked on Plugin Options (bbc.co.uk). I unticked the box marked 'enable tor' then OK. I then hit the resume button and it started working. I don't know if that was the reason for it working but I'm happy now.by Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
Ah ha. That sounds like a plan. Hopefully you can sort out the BBC plug in as well. However, last night I tried to download from the BBC again and after about 5 minutes a message came up saying I was not in the right area to view the content. That seems odd as the I Player is available across the UK. It is also the first time that message has been shown since I first started using FRD.by Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
Hi, Thanks for the quick reply. I have tried the BBC and the screen shows me ERROR -Cannot download from service YouTube - ERROR - SWF URL not found So far the veehd site has shown me this message - ERROR - Error starting download. However, life being like it is I actually managed to start downloading something (from veehd) as I am writing this mail. That is the only sucess I've had in the lby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
After five years of having no problems I am now faced with the problem of not being able to download anything. So far I have removed all of the Java stuff and then loaded up the latest version. I deleted the FreeReapid folder -(not from control panel as it does not register there) and then reloaded the programme from the zipped file. Still no luck. I deleted the folder again, downloaded the new Bby Steve - FreeRapid Downloader - General
