DownThemAll can try to download it every X time and, as soon as it is available, it will download it. Maybe the server is down momentarily or there are many users trying to access. Let’s say we’re trying to download a file, but that page doesn’t work right. But also, and this is interesting if problems arise, we can configure it to try a download again after a certain time has elapsed. We can go from 4 to the number that most interests us. If we go to download many files, the ideal is to increase the number of simultaneous downloads. By default it comes as we can see in the image below. Download limitsĪ very interesting factor is, within the Network option, to configure the number maximum simultaneous downloads, number of download attempts with temporary errors and retry every X minutes. We can change the parameters that most interest us. There we can see a section of general options, as we see in the image, but also two more tabs: filters and network. If we click on the icon at the top right we can see Preferences. It will also take us to a new window where it will inform us of its operation and information on privacy. This can be handy if you want to download file types not displayed in the preset filters listing, or if you want to mix specific file types such as jpg, png and zip and rar.It will automatically add a taskbar icon of the browser, top right. You can use the fast filtering feature to filter for specific file types that you are interested in. All files highlighted under download will be downloaded, while non-highlighted files won't.images, and make sure the download directory is set correctly. Use the filters at the bottom to select the types of files that you want to download, e.g.program download links, full size images and other linked contents, while pictures and media only for media that is visible on the page. Basically, links is for linked contents, e.g.The "real" full sized images are listed under links instead.If you would use it, you would download thumbnail images and not full images.

Pictures and media displays elements that are visible on the page.

New users are probably clicking on pictures and media there assuming that what they want to download is listed there.
