I would like to write my bad experiences about FDM in hope to get them fixed if possible. But first of all i would like to thank to developers for such a great software with modern UI that can handle anything required in these times.

1) I'm also a software developer and i would love to easly access release/changelogs without searching on it google and access them on 3rd party websites. In app or in fdm's website would be correct place for it.

2) Even with v5 or v6 unfortunatelly check for updates never work. I even tried installing older v6 and clicked on check for updates. and it said fdm was up to date. but it was not.

3) I get a bit lost in the website since there are lots of software recommendations but fdm it self is not shown or promoted in homepage. also as i mentioned no change logs....

4) FDM cannot download youtube videos anymore. I was told it was going to be fixed soon 5 months ago? i can understand youtube has changed some things their side. but i can also see that lots of other 3rd party apps can still download youtube videos.

5) this is a suggestion: may be we should also have support for vsco instagram etc popular post/story supports to download.

6) cmd.exe running to catch downloads is not a good looking solution. just saying. cmd.exe is used for lots of things and programmers often kill all cmd.exe's running with taskkill to start over on a something to test. so fdm is effected.

thank you if u care.

We can't delete downloads via delete button on keyboard anymore. i have to first select something and then press recylebin button. with is slow and unhandy.

my fdm is set to download multiple at the same time. but it does not.

i think its also a bug.

any developer caring? not even single comment from anyone? any one reads? any bug fixes?

Hello,
1. viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17900
2. Automatic update from FDM5 to FDM6 is disabled. From FDM6 to FDM6 - is enabled for versions prior to 6.15.2.4167.
6. This is the way Chrome browser works. We never use CMD.exe. So do report this "bug" to them instead. As a workaround, you can use Firefox browser instead. It does not spawn CMD.exe.

The only bug here is that these links are broken.

We can't reproduce this. Any details?

Thanks for the report.

You are a completely ungrateful user. I'm here not to solely serve your needs. I have other tasks to do.

Are you sure you are a software developer? Why aren't you able to even use the forum them?
All the history is there. Just hit "[+] Change log of the previous versions" link at the bottom of the changelog.

one word "youtube"
