This is only happening in Firefox.

After i click to download something, there is like 50% chance of it starting at 100% ot like 1% and never moving. Canceling and refreshing can change the moment it starts, i mean like from 100% to 1 % to 10%. But it still does not move and there is no chance it actualy starts normaly by refreshing the download. I can still click on the download link and there is still chance of it actualy working but i literaly needed to click 30 times on one link for it to download. I recently started to copy links to explorer and downloading from there.

Also is it normal that if i click more than one link in like 2 seconds it only downloads one of them?

PS: I guess the image isn't uploading, i dont know why, i refreshed the site and the image is less than 1MB so,,,

Best regards

That would depend on the size of the file and your internet speed.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?


This download manager works separately from the browser. The browser tells it what to download, and off it goes.
