I have had so many likeups with JD in my entire life but just now thought that if an Undo option would be available those mistakes could be easily fixable.


An option that could undo things like:

• Renaming
• Last path change
• Un-mergin / Re-merging packages
• Undelete package/archive from linkgrabber

Of course I'm not referring to multilevel as I supposed that would be more computer power consuming but a 1 level undo would be fantastic.

This is not going to be implemented any time in the near future.
Here is a related ticket:

Those are not that easy and require more work/planning, see comments:

But should be achievable when really only the name of the last changed package/link is meant.

This would require the complete list to be saved in before state so it could be restored.
Amount of work depends on download list/linkgrabber list

But there are ideas to create sort of *trash* package, see

Maybe you can explain what kind of problems you have? It helps to understand the needs and what the best/easiest solutions would be.

What I was referring to is the LinkGrabber list, I reckon that changes in the Downloads list would be very difficult as there you have to deal with real files.

All my "problems" (I wouldn't call it that as they were all my fault) come from, well, my own stupidity. There have been countless times where I only wanted to change the download directory for a bunch of packages and instead I picked "Mote to new package" instead, other times I deleted some packages (with DEL key, I always delete with the key) when I didn't intend to and I had to search for the links (as they were in the LinkGrabber for long time), and so on.


Thanks for taking the time to read this post guys.

@lamole234: Thanks for the feedback. Just a *workaround* for accidentally deleted links, see
https://support.jdownloader.org/Know...nkgrabber-list
you can drag/drop /load container those .zip files from cfg folder. select the previous one and then it will import all links into list. It's an import and no merge/replace. So either you clear the list complete and then delete the complete zip or import and then remove the unwanted double content
a *trash* for deleted links is on my todo list for *easy* restore.

Would like a history tab that displays actions taken place such as any changes ie renames or Linkcollection processes that has taken place and would be saved in a table before the process starts. I would ideally be able to undo those changes or repeat any Linkcollection that may not have finished or I would want to redo later on in the future.

Every now and then a problem would occur where the program would crash or just freeze until I'd be forced to close it through task manager. This would essentially end any Linkcollection process that was happening.

Merged similar threads about "undo" feature request.

JDownloader should not crash at all and not freeze to be killed via task manager. This sounds like your JDownloader/java runs out of memory. Can you please provide a screenshot of your about dialog?

[RedNapalm]

It's very likely a memory issue but in this recent case, it is running fine but Linkcollector wasn't working and nothing was being downloaded for quite some time. I'm fairly sure it's to do with a link that 404'd before it could download as it has happened before but without Linkcollector freezing.

Here's the log.
05.09.22 21.50.50 <--> 05.09.22 23.11.01 jdlog://9079211370661/

[Jiaz]

@RedNapalm: I need screenshot of running JDownloader about dialog, as it shows the current memory stats. the log does not show that the about dialog shows memory current usage/current allocation and max.

[RedNapalm]

Oh here:

I generally want that reassurance that all actions are saved

[Jiaz]

@RedNapalm:Thanks for the screenshot. how much system memory do you have?

I'm sorry but JDownloader does not have any support to save/resume linkcrawling jobs and there are no plans for such a feature.
That's why I said

JDownloader should not crash at all and not freeze to be killed via task manager.

It's on a cheap box with 8 gigs. The last time I had an issue with it, some parts of it could still function but linkcollector or downloading wouldn't work and I had to restart it.

Can you please define it/explain it more better? what did not work

I would recommend to increase max heap to 4gb, see https://support.jdownloader.org/Know...vmoptions-file
create a .vmoptions file with -Xmx4g
