JDownloader is a free download management tool with a huge community of developers that makes downloading as easy and fast as it should be. Users can start, stop or pause downloads, set bandwidth limitations, auto-extract archives and much more. It's an easy-to-extend framework that can save hours of your valuable time every day!
If you install flatpak version your downloads will not be saved unless you tinker with the settings, because the flatpak version doesn't have permissions to write anything except its own updates. So either be informed or just install from the official website, like any sane person should
Was using Internet Downlaod Manager (licensed) when on Windows. On Mint 21.3, this is just as good though a little bit slower than IDM.
Installed on Mint 20, No problems apart from copying links not automatically pasting in the linkgrabber, probably my browser adblocker, manually pasting is easy
Installation and launching works great on 19.3. The usage is terrible. By default there is no way to retrieve downloaded files and it requires a complicated method to remedy. To those confused about where their files are, the application uses Flatpak which sandboxes your filesystem. To grant access to a specific folder, right-click the Mint start button and click Configure. Under Menu, open the Menu editor and find JDownloader under the Internet category. Open the Properties and under Command add --filesystem=/media/DownloadDrive to grant access to a specific path. After you've closed the editor, press ALT-F2 and type r and press enter to restart the Menu. JDownloader will now have access to the path you specified.
Just forget about this version. You can NOT find your files or directories to save your downloads. After hours lost to search the web about A solution. I did install the version from jdownloader organisation (.org) and now ... it works like a charm. En Français ... Oubliez cette version qui ne fonctionne pas car on a pas accès à l'arborescence de ses disques. Il faut installer l version officielle de jdownload (.org) et là ... magie ... ça fonctionne correctement
I've got the same probleme. I cannot download any files because the files are download in a random place and it's not possible to change it... So it could be good but it made the software unusable for me. I'm running Linux Mint Cinnamom 19.2
Practically unusable. The downloaded files aren't saved in the directory you specify, instead they go into some strange folder under /proc/ and you need to do a search to find the stuff you downloaded. I recommend using the official installer from jdownloader.org instead.
Me ha funcionado correctamente en mint 19, lo único que he tenido que hacer es cambiar la carpeta Download por Descargas
