Re: Redirect to HTTPS version

Re: Win7 64-bit UAC errors and workaround

Did you by chance accidentally re-run the installer after a dialog box popped asking if the program had installed correctly and you accidentally clicked on "Reinstall with ..." button? The reason I ask is that I've installed FDM on numerous Win 7 x64 installations, and my install has never...

Re: I got the error like this when ever the computer started

Re: Firefox Compatibility

As for compatibility, it is currently compatible with Fix 22- Fx 24 (only missing the brand new Firefox Nightly 25 alpha builds). ...

Re: FDM 3.9.2

@mdhossain - does the URL remain constant if you download it in a browser without hte use of FDM, or does it change on a session basis or something like that?
