No, because it's working.

Well, do we have any theory why that's not the case for me? I regularly get alerts from other programs.

Great. Can we now discuss why this is not working?



I was using v6.18.1 Build 4920 during this period

Where did you get this FDM from? It's not an official build. It's unauthorized one. Beware of possible malware. I have never download a version of FDM 6.xxxxx from anywhere else than here https://www.freedownloadmanager.org/board/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17900 https://i.postimg.cc/fbRWwCyJ/FDM1.png ...
