Rated 3 out of 5 stars

by megaman on April 18, 2014 ·

I gave it 3 stars for the reason that I have 2 problems and a request.
Problem #1: Sometimes, the files I try to delete won't delete, even after I completely close the program that is utilizing the file.
Problem #2: The old Download Statusbar would allow me to drag the file to a new folder, and it just removes the file from the list. The feature to select folder where to send, is tedious and annoying at best. I prefer to drag and drop into my folder of choice, like the good-old days.

Request #1: This add-on performs like the old version when I double-click an empty area of the add-on, it closes the add-on UI. I would like it to prevent from closing the UI when I double-click the UI layout, I might do it by accident and I can't manage the huge amount of files in the list, I have to hunting the designated folder, which is more tedious at best.

Other than that, this is the most amazing add-on I have seen and I love that it has improved. I would like to have "Automatically continue downloading when the browser closes," but as an option, not having to hunt-down the about:config.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (8.9.5.1-signed).

Hi megaman,

Thank you so much for your review and kind words.

Problem #1: I also encountered such bug but mostly it was another external application or Firefox itself which did not release the file. All I can suggest is to use Unlocker which will help release files in those cases and delete files after using Unlocker.

Problem #2: There is already a drag and drop feature for this add-on. Could you recheck please?

Thanks for the suggestion. I will add a preference for Double Click disable.

I am planning to redesign Options window soon and hopefully include those hidden preferences, too.

Cheers
