If you have a problem using FDM and want to report it, please try to provide the detailed description, otherwise your report will be probably useless. No one knows which smallest thing may be helpful, so don't write "I skipped some irrelevant details”, please.

If it's possible, change language in FDM to English and only then provide error messages, screenshots, logs, etc.

1. 1. General description of a problem. For downloads description must contain download method: click URL/button, right click and use context menu, copy-and-paste URL etc.
2. 2. What steps will reproduce the problem? Optional, but required sometimes.
3. 3. What do you expect from FDM instead? Optional.
4. 4. What OS and browsers you use, including their versions/builds and bitness (32/64-bit).
