This extension is reported not to work for downloads that are interrupted by "network error".

However, that was not my problem. As far as I can tell, some interaction between my cloud storage provider and VPN provider made my downloads fail constantly.
This extension does restart them.

So, does not work as advertised, does work for my use case.
Good luck.
I'm on 139.0.4 on Win 10 in June 2025

Hello Mr Abney,

it works very well for me. All downloads will continue.

I have a fast line (230 Mbit / s or about 25 to 26 MB / s) and I use an online service that works like a video recorder (www.save.tv) and I download my recorded videos, series and films from it with a size of about 2 to 4 GB per video.

Due to my (for me) quite fast line, it takes about 1 minute per GB, depending on the time of day, just a little more than 4 minutes for 4.4 GB. I also imagine that it is faster overall if the videos are downloaded one after the other. But it also works if, for example, 4 downloads are running at the same time. But then I have the impression that 4 files are slower at the same time than the same 4 files one after the other. However, I only estimated it and did not measure it.

So I sit in front of the computer and start the next download every 2 to 4 minutes.

If I now use Auto resume, all downloads in the list, and there may be 20 or more in the download list, are started at the same time.

Is it possible to add a switch or prompt for simultaneous downloads in auto resume?

That would save me a lot of work.

Unfortunately I can't post any pictures here, that would explain it better.

Thank you very much.

Mr Abney, my apologies. Your app does appear to work about 90% of the time but only in Chrome and Edge. Does not work in Firefox at all. Would be really nice if you could get the remaining 10% to work, seems that every now and then a NETWORK ERROR is not recovered from and restarted unless done manually. Not sure what is causing this periodic problem, but it works. If I can be of help in providing my experience let me know. ... 5@mail5.us ...Bob

It works fine ,thanks ^_^
,but there is a bug:
the add-on resumes the downloads that I have paused myself... I don't want it to do that
