Default Invalid Download Directory

Hi, I'm getting "invalid download directory" for a directory that exists.

eg: "I:/Series/Silicon Valley"

The strange thing is, it works in the root of the drive "I:/" but not in any other folder like "I:/Series"

any adivice on how to fix this?

Here is my log: 15.06.17 15.48.54 <--> 15.06.17 16.57.13 jdlog://8808804015941/

think you will find that its \ not / ;p

the log shows that JDownloader doesn't have permission to write to that path

Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: I:\Series\subdirectory\jd_accessCheck_1497570914719 (Access is denied)

Apparently Jdownloader not running as administrator was the problem. I think I fixed this. =]

Thanks!

JDownloader shouldn't be run as administrator.
Should always run as the as standard user, with the appropriate the read/write permission.

I know this is a old thread.

Long file names will give you this error.

They are over the character limits of the OP system.

I solve this issue by shortening the file name of the files..

Make sure the length is under the max character limits of your OS..


Happy New Year.

Take care..

* Not only but also.

An auto shortening feature will be there soon.
