Key to bypass FDM

Postby jvidalw » Fri Apr 14, 2023 7:15 pm

Hi! Going through the settings I didn't seem to find any key (or key combo) that when pressed while clicking on a link would cause FDM to ignore it so it can be downloaded with the browser...
for example ctrl+shift+click = the browser downloads the file instead of FDM.

is there such an option????

However, if you enable the option in Preferences --> Browser Integration --> Use browser if you cancel the download via FDM, then just regular click on it and when FDM opens hit the ESC key to cancel the download (May also need to disable Start downloading without confirmation for this to work).
