The built-in downloader handles everyday files fine, but large downloads, dropped connections or throttling can waste the whole effort. It supports resume, so once the network is back the download continues from the breakpoint instead of restarting.
Basic usage
Click a download link and the panel shows progress, speed and remaining time. You can pause, resume or cancel, and open the containing folder when it finishes.
- Live progress, speed and remaining time
- Pause and resume support
- Open the file or its folder when done
- Drag files out to the desktop or a folder
Resume and acceleration
For servers that support range requests the downloader fetches in multiple threads and resumes from the last byte after an interruption. When a server does not support it, it falls back to a single thread but still keeps what was completed.
- Multi-thread segmented download
- Resumes after network loss or shutdown
- Clear notice when a server does not support resume
- Speed limit available so browsing is not starved
Safety prompts
Downloaded executables are scanned; files from unknown sources or flagged by the scanner are marked and require a second confirmation before opening.
- Executables scanned after download
- Risky files need confirmation before opening
- Source URL is always visible
- False positives can be added to a trust list
FAQ
Can a half-finished download be resumed?
It depends on whether the server supports range requests. If it does, resume is automatic; if not, you will be told a restart is needed.
Where are downloaded files stored?
In the system download folder by default. You can change the location in settings or ask for the location before each download.
