Hello,

I currently use the latest stable Flashgot version 1.2.7 in FF 3.6.13.
Chosen Download Manager = JDownloader.

The problem :

When selecting links, and chosing "Flashgot Link" or "Flashgot selection", it pops up a "Save as, choose folder" window.
This window behaves extremely erratically, in the sense that it doesn't see subfolders most of the time.

For example :

I have :

C:\Downloads\

with the following subfolders :

C:\Downloads\subfolder1\
C:\Downloads\subfolder2\
C:\Downloads\subfolder3\
C:\Downloads\subfolder4\
C:\Downloads\subfolder5\
C:\Downloads\subfolder6\
C:\Downloads\subfolder7\

mostly, when I previously saved something in C:\Downloads\subfolder6, the folder selection window does not see any of the other subfolders. For example, the next time I want to download something it opens here by default :


C:\Downloads\
!--subfolder6

...there is no sign of the other subfolders while the C:\Downloads\ item is expanded.

Trying to hist F5, or browsing away from it (for example to another drive) and then browsing back does not make the subfolders appear. There's nothing left than cancelling the download operation, and trying again and again, it's really not behaving well.

Anyone aware of this problem, easy to duplicate ? Can it be fixed please ?

Thank you very much for any reply.

I cannot reproduce your issue.
However, the folder selection dialog is provided by Firefox, which in turns borrows it from the underlying operating system.
Using Fx 3.6.13 on Win XP 64 here.

Thanks for investigating Giogio,

I'm on Win7 x64 here.

I don't know if this could be a cause, but my downloading folders are not actually on the C:\ partition, but rather on the S:\ partition.

BTW, downloading directly in Firefox, I have never seen this malfunction, it always (and constantly) happens when FlashGot is used.

Greetings,
Werner.
