Which system and Firefox version? Are you using "always private browing" mode or other privacy options?

Edit: This is strange. I did not see this error on the same version. Also, the private browsing bug has be fixed in this version of Firefox.

I suggest using a new profile (about:profile).

If you want to debug this extension, please right click the "Add to Firefox" install button and save the link to xpi file. Open about:debugging#addons, check the checkbox, click "load temporary addon", and select this xpi file. Click "Debug" under the temporary loaded extension and then click "reload", to see if there is any error shown in the Console tab.

    Stay away. Large downloads spike RAM usage while finalizing, causing the files to fail and your PC to freeze.

    Everytime I try to download anything I got a server error message and I have to manually resume the download because the retry system doesn't even work.
    Trash.

    It works, but... there's no way to use custom download locations, because /Downloads (my default location on Firefox under Debian Linux always is chosen.
    That's a bad habit, because very often I use custom storage locations like USB HD's and especially bigger downloads put a high load unnecessarily on my SSD, which otherwise could be re-assigned completely.
    Furthermore this AddOn seems to be dead, as there was no update since 2 full years... and there are numerous open tickets visible.
    To clarify: I will re-edit this review in _ a n y _ case (dead or alive) and will downgrade it in case of a dead project and no response, so that it becomes at least obvious, that one should consider to remove this more and more function-wise dying thing from Firefox.

    Excellent! It would be even better with an icon for the new Firefox sidebar :)

    This add-on supercharges Firefox's built-in download manager by enabling multi-threading support. With no additional software required and a robust set of options, this add-on is fantastic. Thanks to the developer!

    It's good but fails for very large files, ie 20GB or more. After the download, firefox starts saving it, but it gets stuck halfway.
