How to restart a download?

Post by b1scu1t »

Hello,

I have run into a situation where half way through a download I realised I was running out of room to do a unrar etc.  I show a skeleton symbol now for that specific download.  I have cleaned up some room, is there anyway for me to get SAB to restart the specific download?

Thanks,

If all files were downloaded and the result was OK,
you can manually unrar the files.

Assuming you use Windows open a "Command Prompt", and type this:

cd /d "c:\FULL PATH TO THE DOWNLOAD FOLDER"
unrar x "NAME-OF-FIRST-RAR.rar" "c:\YOUR-DESTINATION-FOLDER\"

After that you can remove the download folder.

If you have the full WinRAR installed, just use the Windows Explorer to find
the download folder and double-click the first RAR file.
