I'd like to request a feature which would allow to stop a torrent after the download has completed. Or that seeding could be disabled from specified torrents.

I'm on a private torrent site and would only like to seed some of the torrents not all of them.

I think Dev should add feature "Prevent Sleep" on Mac. After my Macbook turns the display off, it will sleep, so FDM can't download.

Please make it for Archlinux also

I don't know if anyone else has requested this but it would be really great if you could add monitoring to Microsoft Edge.

Seeding after download completion can currently be disabled manually.
There are plans for improving this feature, but not immediate.

Thank you, we'll work on this.

We're doing all we can to become as cross-platform as possible, but our current priorities are Mac and Windows.

why is the check for update function there even though when there is a new update we must download it via the website. isnt that make check for update pointless. the same goes for the older version of freedownloadmanager 3.9.7.
Really appreciate like the new ui but need more feature from the older fdm. as a suggestion the older fdm is quite good for what it can do already. why dont just change the ui instead of making a new fdm?? isnt that same up more time? cant you guys just change the texture or what??
anyhow keep up the good work will always support you guys. thanks.

Clive - any response to the behavior shown in the video I linked to? (Youtube videos are deleted rather than removed from the list when you select 'remove from list').

FDM has problems with Google Image. I can't click View image to see it on a new tab, the FDM automatically download the image. Here is the video: https://youtu.be/ey6NwQoiROM

As for the apperance of FDM, it's a rather complicated issue with the older version.

This is strange, since there should be automated updates.
Please describe the issue in more detail: how is the update check functioning for you? It may be that updating is not working for some reason. Also, the access to the video is restricted, can't watch it.

This is a known bug, we're working on fixing it.

This is also a bug we're currently fixing.

I have a site that is password protected. Where can I enter the username and pw? I used to be able before I tried 5.1.

I was successful using the chrome plug in while already being signed into the site...

I just was stumped for a while looking for the old pw settings and sometimes found it handy to not use a plugin.

i will report back when the next update come to see whether it update or not. cant really say for sure for now.

It's resposible for browser integration. Without it, download interception won't work.
