I think you can. I use FDM3.0 with Windows Vista 64 bit and it works, so it might be compatible with 64 bit version of Windows 7 too.

Hi
I've upgraded from v2.5 to v3.0
double click on a finished in "s pane" is supposed to launch the clicked file.
but it doesn't (even I right click on the selected item and click "Launch file" and it does nothing.)
Could it be a bug ?
Am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks

Crashes almost every time I am using HTML Spider, which really sucks because that's the main thing I use it for. It always crashes whenever I delete a website from the spider (just hangs, not using 100% u usage oor anything, just sits there not responding).

Also still broken, recursively adding thousands of files which are just redirects of pages it already has. Doesn't help the only filter you can use is extension, and it just goes starting to files you don't want.

Here's how I would prefer it worked - HTML spider runs completely, and only adds files as s and does NOT start them automatically (at the moment, as soon as you start the HTML spider, it doesn't give you a choice to all the found files). Then you can later edit the s to your liking. You could avoid this with more filters other than just extension, as then you could better include only the files you want (for example, a site offers both s as a split set and a single file, yyou only want the single file, FDM will grab everything - if you could filter it, you could choose which you wanted). Also I tell it not to store the server pages, but it still does. HTML Spider would be so awesome if it wasn't so severely broken and crippled.

Edit: ARGH! 3.0 still ignores maximum connections per server setting. Sorry to whine, but good god that is frustrating. What is the point of having the setting if the software will not using it? I set it to 4, 8, whatever, FDM still tries to pull as many files from a single server as it can. Getting me banned all to hell in no time.

I cant get the Google Chrome monitoring to work. It says ''can't find Google Chrome plugin directory. Do you wish to specify it manually?''
So, what do I do from here onwards?

I have the same problem. Any help? Thanks.

I think I just needed to navigate to to the Chrome plugin directory. It can be found here (default install location):

C:/s/YOURNAMEHERE/AppData/Local/Google/Chrome/Plugins

AppData is a hidden folder, so you'll need to "show hidden folders" in Folder Options first.

It seems that FDM b844 can't save some settings under Windows 7

Using FDM 3.0.843 when I use the option to "search for updates", FDM say that my current version is already update, but this is false because the new version is 3.0.844.

What settings?

For example the setting of where Opera plugin folder is gets wiped after closing. Ive checked the settings.dat file content and sometimes it contains the path to opera plugin diretory but after starting fdm again its gone/wiped from the settings file. Please look into how the settings.dat saving is handled!

P.s im trying to use fdm portable and opera portable.

Thanks!

I can't run a spider again, I can only delete it and re-add it.
