Hello,
We can't reproduce this. Could you provide some details about your OS and hardware (e.g. type of the device you're downloading to) ?

This morning, I get it again. But it turned black and displayed exact disk space when I were ready for capturing a screenshot.
So is it something that timeout is too small or the response of my notebook is too slow?

CPU i7-8550U
RAM 16GB

I may have mentioned part of this before.

It had been a while, and I was wondering if there had been any FDM updates. I selected "Check for Updates", and the message said FDM is up to date. Then I tried to determine which version I had installed, and, please correct me if I wrong, but I could not find an "About" option in the FDM interface or anything similar that listed the version.

I had to go to windows "Programs and Features" to find out what version I had.

So came here to post, and discovered that at least several versions had been released since v6.19.1.5263 [May 19, 2023]. the one I have installed.

I had another question, so came here to post, and discovered that several versions had been released since
v6.19.1.5263 [May 19, 2023]. the one I have installed.

EDIT: The update included the "About" feature. Will we now be notified when updates are available, either automatically or by 'Check for Updates??

My initial issue was, I have two Firefox FDM addons. Do I need both?

Hello,
The only add-on we make and support is the one opened in Firefox when you click the browser button in FDM settings (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... ger-addon/).
Other add-ons could be created by anyone and can possibly contain malware. Install only add-ons you trust.

Hello,
Unfortunately, we could not reproduce this. Could you provide us any helpful details regarding issue so we would able to reproduce it too?


For my particular case the following is relevant:
Connecting to a HTTPS Virtual Folder on an IIS Server for Windows Server 2022 with Windows Basic Authentication.

Prior to latest release username/password only needed to be provided once.

Hello,

I installed 6.20 today and the first thing I saw is the small font size it got.
Looked at the changelog, there was a huge design of the ui, which probably the cause. I did not expect this kind of change in a minor version bump.

My questions would be: is it possible to increase the font size within the fdm?

Kind Regards,
Alex

More specifically, if you go to Preferences --> Advanced, scroll down to the Interface section, there are 2 settings you can adjust, right above the Automation section:

Overall Zoom (100% / 200%) and Fonts zoom (70% --> 140%, incrementing by 10%).

I've got it set to 100% overall and 140% font, and it is easily readable on 4K monitors now.

Looked before posting, but failed to find. After posting I saw the option :shock:
Thank you.

Have to play a little bit to get the same "default" view as before. But font size 130% looks fine.

"Check for updates automatically" still doesn't work, and today, "Check for Updates..." told me I was up to date. which was not the case..
