Generation of random files

Post by editor1593 »

Hi Guys,

I have a problem. With a lot of files I'm downloading I'm getting a 'completed successfully' notification however when I navigate to the folder containing the download I have a lot of randomly named files without extensions. So I would see file named as: 0ab519a5fcf5efc4, 0df66f50cc49d36f, etc... All the files will be of the same size too. They have the appearance of a split rar, or zip archive but as I say they have no extension.

Any ideas why I am getting this and is there a solution?

Thanks very much!

Those are not random names, but deliberately obfuscated by the poster.
Please try the new 1.2.0RC1 release for this.
