lost qued & in progress files
 

Greetings:

this use to happen on upgrade, but hasn't occurred for some time...

I installed 2.8.6 PRO several days ago, and it has run better tham 2.8.5 (fewer chokes)

BUT, upon launching this evening all files in progress or qued were absent.

Is there

1) a file I can back up, or copy to recover from this?

2) something I can do to prevent this?

Thanks in advance,

Any Ideas on how to recover the Qued or in-progress files????

thanks

Bump to the top_

does anyone have ANY ideas (about this, that is...)???
:D

Yes, go to library look at your incompletes folder and choose resume.

DOH
 

hadn't been using that screen, at all. Thanks.

Embarrased that didn't see it myself...

The word Library in the UI is a little odd, just sounds so fixed, and I assumed (and we know what happens when we assume) that it was just a static view of what's on disk...

Thank you.

It would be nice if you were able to select more than one file at a time from the library listing and then click resume.

When the current downloads listing disappears, It is very time consuming to click, resume and then return from the search window for every file that was in process.

hi oldtimer--I remember using shift-click to select multiple files. I would also click on the appropriate header to sort the list so most of the files were in a contiguous block. I never found a way to select discontiguous files. I also had to pay attention--the delete button/option was pretty easy to hit by mistake.
