Changelog

All notable changes to Multi-Debrid Downloader are documented in this file.

[Unreleased]

[2.0.71] - 2026-08-24

Deepbrid accounts

• Add Deepbrid API-key accounts with encrypted credential storage, account validation, premium status, expiration details, usage counters, and explicit secret reveal controls.
• Route downloads through Deepbrid in the normal provider order, hoster rules, daily limits, cooldown handling, and automatic fallback chain.
• Validate API responses, retry only rate limits and temporary failures, reject unsafe download targets and filenames, and keep keys and provider responses out of logs and diagnostics.
• Add the Deepbrid service icon and verified support for generating and downloading 1Fichier links.

Recurring daily starts

• Add a persistent daily queue schedule using the local time zone with separate start-today and start-tomorrow choices.
• Reconcile schedules after restarts, account changes, suspend, and resume while preventing duplicate starts for the same local calendar day.
• Preserve existing one-time schedules during unrelated settings saves and show the next daily start as a live countdown.

Discord notifications

• Add detailed package and run results, grouped or individual success messages, remaining-volume thresholds, confirmed download stalls, and recovery notifications.
• Persist notifications across restarts with bounded retries, rate-limit handling, FIFO delivery, shutdown recovery, and protection against transient disk-write failures.
• Store and export only fixed failure categories so local paths, URLs, provider accounts, and raw errors are excluded from Discord messages and support bundles.

Hoster identification

• Show local 1Fichier and DDownload hoster icons with full names in tooltips throughout the download queue.

[2.0.70] - 2026-08-24

Real-Debrid browser accounts

• Generate unrestricted links through the authenticated Real-Debrid downloader form inside an isolated background browser session instead of routing browser accounts through the API-token path.
• Keep browser sessions separated per account, avoid background login popups, and recover safely from cancellation, page-load stalls, timeouts, renderer crashes, account disablement, deletion, and shutdown.
• Validate generated download URLs against Real-Debrid download hosts and preserve exact filenames and file sizes without accepting foreign or insecure targets.
• Report website login and provider errors clearly, reject multi-file folder links instead of silently returning an incomplete result, and keep API-token accounts unchanged.

Download table

• Restore header sorting without interfering with column dragging and add sorting for the Service column.
• Sort packages from their currently visible rows and preserve definitive link availability across reset operations.
• Keep active, integrity-checked, and completed downloads visibly online when no separate availability result has been stored yet.

Clipboard reliability

• Route link names, URLs, package batches, backup keys, diagnostics, error details, and masked account identifiers through the validated Electron clipboard writer.
• Support complete link-package copies up to one MiB and report failed clipboard writes instead of displaying false success messages.

Item diagnostics

• Format new item-log start, event, and end timestamps as local DD.MM.YYYY - HH:mm:ss values while leaving machine-readable application, audit, package, and session logs unchanged.

[2.0.67] - 2026-08-24

Extraction stability

• Return archive extraction and package-status behavior to the verified v2.0.54 baseline after regressions in later releases.
• Keep the existing download, account, update, history, statistics, and backup capabilities from that stable baseline.

1Fichier and DDownload metadata

• Resolve public filenames, exact sizes, availability, and supported domain aliases before downloads start.
• Keep resolved filenames when a debrid provider later returns a generic download.bin name.
• Preserve partial-download resume paths while applying late metadata and safely rename completed files afterward.
• Recover interrupted metadata renames through an item-bound journal without adopting unrelated same-name files.
• Restrict DDownload redirects to HTTPS targets carrying the same file identity and keep challenge pages in an unknown state instead of marking them offline.

Windows appearance

• Force the native Windows title bar to remain dark across local desktop, server, and Remote Desktop profiles.

[2.0.54] - 2026-08-21

Update validation

• Published a controlled follow-up version so installations running v2.0.53 can verify the repaired in-app updater handoff end to end.

[2.0.53] - 2026-08-21

In-app updates

• Started the verified NSIS installer directly before application shutdown so Windows Server and RDP process-job cleanup cannot terminate an intermediate PowerShell launcher.
• Kept the running application open when Windows rejects the installer process instead of reporting a successful update and quitting without an installer.
• Delegated the complete process handoff to the installer with a 60-second graceful wait and a verified post-termination wait before replacing application files.

[2.0.52] - 2026-08-21

Rolling account statistics

• Added a true rolling Last 24 Hours range directly after Today in Statistics.
• Attributed downloaded traffic to the exact Real-Debrid, Mega-Debrid, or Debrid-Link account that produced each direct link.
• Displayed the known account username with its provider while retaining safe fallback labels for accounts without checked identity data.
• Kept the rolling total accurate across midnight, account disablement, deletion, application restarts, and session-statistics resets.
• Started exact rolling account collection after the upgrade without inventing historical account ownership from older daily totals.

Statistics precision and performance

• Kept primary statistics data totals in gigabytes above 1 TB so large daily volumes remain precise, for example 1,250 GB instead of 1.2 TB.
• Stored traffic in sparse minute buckets with a bounded 48-hour retention window.
• Maintained the visible 24-hour aggregate incrementally and kept raw minute history out of frequent renderer snapshots.
• Preserved full rolling history in encrypted full backups while removing account IDs and labels from support statistics.

[2.0.51] - 2026-08-21

In-app updates

• Refreshed the latest release metadata immediately before every installer download instead of reusing a previous update check.
• Read the running version from the installed package metadata so the displayed version cannot lag behind the installed application.
• Added a release gate that rejects packaged main bundles built for an older version.
• Kept a dismissed update prompt closed for the same target version until the next application start while still allowing newer releases and manual checks to appear.
• Changed the Update available button from blue to green.

Release verification

• Added real Windows process-order and installed-package version coverage for the complete update handoff.
• Required a fresh application build after the release version changes before packaging the installer.

[2.0.50] - 2026-08-21

In-app updates

• Deferred silent installer startup until the current application process has fully exited so the new version can acquire the single-instance lock.
• Added an installer-level process handoff that also protects upgrades launched by v2.0.48 and v2.0.49.
• Reduced the delay between a verified update download and application shutdown from five seconds to 250 milliseconds.
• Added Windows process-order regression coverage and made the public release verifier require the update-safe NSIS include.

[2.0.49] - 2026-08-21

Download table

• Added a right-click column menu with a one-step reset to the default column layout.
• Clarified visible-column state with green checkmarks, normal menu text, and a centered reset action.
• Kept availability labels aligned across one- and two-digit package counts while reducing excess spacing before the online state.

Account status

• Added the last successful or failed account-check time directly below each stored status.
• Updated relative check times automatically while the application remains open.
• Changed expired premium access to the existing Free Account state instead of leaving stale Premium active text visible.

History

• Removed multi-selected history entries through one validated IPC request and one atomic history-file update.
• Preserved configured history limits above 500 entries during single and bulk removal operations.

Remaining volume

• Added a translated hover explanation when the remaining download volume contains files whose sizes are not known yet.
• Kept fully known queues unchanged while exposing the same explanation to assistive technology.

[2.0.48] - 2026-08-20

Download table

• Eliminated brief flicker and snap-back when moving download columns left or right.
• Made column moves respond immediately while keeping transitions smooth and column widths stable.
• Kept column move controls vertically centered throughout the animation.

• Applied column changes instantly when animations are disabled.

[2.0.47] - 2026-08-20

Live updates

• Standardized running download snapshots and progress metrics on a 750 ms cadence for every queue size.
• Aligned session volume, remaining volume, speed, ETA, the header speed sparkline, and the bandwidth chart to the same refresh interval.
• Removed the extra active-download renderer delay so the UI presents each completed snapshot immediately without stacking latency.
• Prevented normal progress updates from retriggering rolling metric transitions before the previous transition can finish.

[2.0.46] - 2026-08-20

Archive passwords

• Restored the saved archive password list automatically when the Extraction settings section is opened.
• Kept the visible password list intact after settings saves, account updates, and live state refreshes.
• Prevented late password-list loads from overwriting unsaved edits and invalidated stale loads during backup imports.
• Kept archive passwords out of general renderer snapshots and exposed them only through a dedicated trusted IPC channel.

[2.0.45] - 2026-08-19

Account availability

• Kept a configured Real-Debrid account pool authoritative when every account is disabled instead of reviving legacy browser-login fields.
• Released stale in-memory Real-Debrid cooldown and sticky state when an account is explicitly re-enabled so the Start action becomes available without restarting the application.
• Preserved configured per-account daily limits and usage while refreshing only transient runtime state.

[2.0.44] - 2026-08-17

Live updates

• Reduced visible download, remaining-volume, speed, ETA, and availability refresh churn for queues with 250 or more items by using a calm 500 ms cadence.
• Updated live speed sparklines and the bandwidth chart to redraw every 500 ms instead of every 250 ms.
• Kept small queues responsive and retained the stronger 700 ms protection for queues with 1,500 or more items.

Product identity

• Renamed the packaged application, installer, portable executable, support bundles, update repository, and public download references to Multi-Debrid-Downloader.
• Migrated the legacy application data directory automatically so existing settings, accounts, queue state, history, statistics, and runtime logs remain available after the rename.
• Preserved the existing Windows application identity to support in-place updates while retaining the legacy data directory as a safe fallback when Windows temporarily blocks the migration.
• Updated diagnostics, exported link headers, host checks, user agents, release verification, and public documentation to use the current product name.

Account runtime

• Added a Runtime tab to account management with provider summaries for available accounts, active downloads, and daily traffic.
• Added per-account runtime details for current state, active downloads, daily traffic, session success rate, last use, and cooldown or skip reason.
• Kept API and browser accounts with matching identifiers isolated by provider and access mode throughout runtime attribution.
• Removed runtime counters for deleted accounts and limited renderer data to sanitized states and aggregate counters without credentials, API responses, or raw provider errors.

[2.0.42] - 2026-08-15

Real-Debrid accounts

• Added support for multiple Real-Debrid API-token and browser-login accounts in the same account pool.
• Kept every browser account in an isolated persistent or transient session so cookies, tokens, login windows, and queued actions cannot leak between accounts.
• Added independent account activation, daily limits, daily usage, lifetime usage, status records, identity details, editing, removal, and credential reveal controls.
• Migrated existing single-account Real-Debrid settings and browser sessions into the new pool without discarding saved credentials or account status.
• Assigned opaque account identifiers and kept API tokens, browser tokens, cookies, and credential-derived fingerprints out of renderer state and diagnostics.

Rotation and recovery

• Rotated eligible Real-Debrid API and browser accounts with fair ordering, sticky reuse, in-flight exclusion, account cooldowns, and daily-limit enforcement.
• Continued within the same conversion request after account-specific authentication, rate-limit, timeout, and transport failures.
• Kept provider-wide hoster failures and permanent link failures from cooling down or rotating otherwise healthy accounts.
• Attributed downloaded traffic to the exact account that generated the unrestricted link while preserving provider-wide totals.
• Rebuilt account rotation state immediately after live account, credential, enablement, or limit changes.

Account checks and login behavior

• Refreshed an account before enabling it and rolled the toggle back when the account is invalid or cannot be checked.
• Preserved Real-Debrid usernames and email addresses independently in browser-account status rows.
• Prevented manually closed Real-Debrid login windows from reopening through queued or repeated work.
• Restricted browser window creation to explicit login actions so activation, status checks, downloads, missing sessions, and fair-use failures remain noninteractive.
• Cleaned up aborted, failed, deleted, and superseded browser sessions without allowing delayed probes to restore stale tokens or status records.

Interface and downloads

• Added precise service filtering and alphabetical service ordering to the account-add dialog.
• Kept Real-Debrid API and browser-login choices available after another Real-Debrid account has already been configured.
• Continued link availability checks after downloads start so items cannot remain stuck on Checking while actively downloading.
• Added account-specific login, check, edit, enable, disable, remove, and reveal actions throughout the settings interface.

• Prevented double-clicking an account action button from opening the account editor behind its context menu.
• Simplified account menu headings to one hoster and access-type label without dangling separators or empty identity fields.

Downloads and queue controls

• Moved the Remaining metric above the all-time Total value in the download summary.
• Kept the currently selected priority as a disabled no-op so choosing it does not close the package context menu.
• Reordered high, standard, and low priority packages consistently while preserving stable order inside each priority group.
• Added smooth package movement when priority changes and extended the reorder transition to three seconds for easier visual tracking.
• Renamed the package-only motion preference to a general animation setting shared by package disclosure, priority movement, and history details.
• Cancelled active package movement immediately when animations are disabled.
• Removed phantom horizontal and vertical scrollbars from newly opened package context menus.

• Added real file counts, success rates, average transfer speed, failure counts, and provider result totals to ranged statistics.
• Kept daily statistics bounded and normalized during load, save, backup export, and restore.

History and interface

• Rebuilt the history table around one shared resizable grid so headers, rows, expanded details, and horizontal scrolling stay aligned.
• Persisted history column widths and kept them responsive across compact and wide windows.
• Anchored the history Action column to the table edge and aligned size values directly below their header.
• Reworked expanded history details into a cleaner grouped surface for provider, files, duration, average speed, target folder, and source URLs.
• Added smooth history expand and collapse motion governed by the general animation preference.
• Kept history disclosure immediate when animations are disabled.

[2.0.40] - 2026-08-15

Storage reliability

• Added volume-aware capacity reservations before download writes, archive extraction, and media remux operations.
• Accounted for concurrent reservations and a configurable safety margin so parallel work cannot overbook the same volume.
• Parked capacity-blocked work without consuming regular retry attempts and exposed structured disk-wait state for automatic recovery.

Large queue performance

[2.0.23] - 2026-08-11

Update experience

• Changed the available-update header action to a dedicated light-blue treatment with dark high-contrast text.
• Added cumulative release notes for every stable version newer than the installed application, ordered from newest to oldest.

• Opened nested right-side menus toward the available left side of the application frame.
• Changed enabled settings switches to the semantic success color.
• Changed online file indicators to the semantic success color.
• Removed overlapping light text fragments from the dark-on-green progress labels and strengthened their weight.

Reliability and testing

• Added regression coverage for background bandwidth sampling, 60-second history trimming, nested menu overflow, enabled switch colors, progress-label clipping, responsive service/status cells, immediate queue counts, and localized sidebar counters.

[2.0.15] - 2026-08-10

Highlights

• Unified live speed reporting across the header, package table, and sidebar with a single telemetry source and consistent two-decimal formatting.
• Reworked account creation into one clear service and access-type selector with the relevant credentials form directly below it.
• Improved dense download views with responsive status labels, clearer progress text, and safer package expansion behavior.

Downloads and telemetry

• Removed the redundant Add links toolbar action so Start is now the first download control.
• Removed the additional renderer delay for large active queues, allowing manager telemetry to appear without a second buffering interval.
• Kept the header sparkline, package speeds, and sidebar speed synchronized from the same package telemetry snapshot.
• Preserved known file sizes when an unrestrict response does not provide a replacement size, preventing temporary queue-total drops when a download starts.
• Restricted package expansion and collapse to the visible disclosure button so ordinary row clicks no longer change the package state.
• Added compact window labels for link conversion, active downloads, and extraction while retaining complete status details in tooltips and accessibility labels.
• Removed duplicated access-mode wording from Mega-Debrid service labels while preserving the complete source label as a tooltip.

Interface and accessibility

• Added clipped dual-color progress labels so text remains light over the unfilled track and dark over the green fill.
• Added a dedicated orange bandwidth-chart accent with a restrained matching area fill.
• Changed active premium account indicators to the success color.
• Kept the File, Settings, and Help menus inside the application frame at narrow window widths.
• Added semantic progressbar values and accessible labels to package and file size/progress meters.

Settings and accounts

• Replaced the expandable account-type list with a single service/access selector.
• Displayed the selected account type description and exactly one matching credentials form.
• Retained the existing account validation, protected secret fields, and save flow.

Reliability and testing

• Added regression coverage for stable file-size transitions, unified speed telemetry, responsive status presentation, service-label cleanup, progress contrast, package disclosure behavior, account selection, premium status colors, chart colors, toolbar ordering, and narrow application menus.

[2.0.14] - 2026-08-10

Highlights

• Added immediate English/German language switching across the complete interface. New installations now start in English, while existing installations retain their previous language behavior until changed.
• Added RapidGator file-size discovery before downloads start and accelerated large queue checks with bounded parallel requests.
• Added package and file availability states with aligned online counters, clear colors, and automatic migration of existing column layouts.
• Reworked the Downloads workspace for substantially denser queues, smoother interaction, clearer selection, and responsive column sizing.
• Rebuilt the project README with current documentation and a sanitized screenshot of the application.

Downloads workspace

• Reduced package rows to 40 pixels and file rows to 38 pixels so more queue entries fit on screen.
• Removed the previous blue package-card treatment in favor of flat rows and restrained separators.
• Changed progress fills to green and unified package/file value contrast.
• Added stable minimum widths and proportional column distribution so labels and values remain readable at normal window sizes.
• Centered all data columns while preserving left alignment for package and file names.
• Increased the action column width and reserved scrollbar space to prevent clipping.
• Normalized expand buttons to a fixed 30 × 30 pixel footprint.
• Added a 300 ms measured expand/collapse animation for package files.
• Added smooth, pointer-based full-column reordering. The dragged header and every visible cell move together while neighboring columns glide aside.
• Added persistent column-order migration with the new Availability column.
• Added RapidGator and DDownload hoster icons with full-name tooltips and text fallback for unknown hosters.

Availability and metadata

• Added package-level online counters with separate online, partial, offline, and checking states.
• Added file-level Online and Offline indicators.
• Aligned availability symbols, counts, separators, and labels on fixed axes.
• Read RapidGator file names and sizes from the public file page without creating a debrid download.
• Replaced sequential link checks with bounded concurrency and duplicate-request sharing.
• Improved retry behavior for transient RapidGator metadata failures.
• Updated known file and package sizes while the queue is checked.
• Corrected the sidebar Total value to represent the current queue instead of the historical all-time download counter.

Selection and package controls

• Fixed global Select all and Deselect all synchronization for memoized package rows.
• Increased selection checkboxes to 18 × 18 pixels.
• Added a green selected-row background and a clear left selection edge.
• Added Shift range selection across visible package and file rows.
• Added Escape handling to clear the complete selection, including when a checkbox has focus.
• Removed the redundant package activation checkbox; activation remains available through context actions.
• Preserved additive Ctrl/Command selection and bulk actions.

Navigation and animation

• Added a shared sliding selection indicator to the main navigation.
• Added matching sliding indicators to Downloads filters, Settings sections, History ranges, and Statistics periods.
• Fixed initial category selection so newly opened views appear selected immediately instead of fading in from an empty state.
• Preserved intentional interface animations when the operating system requests reduced motion.
• Added slide-in and slide-out transitions to the File, Settings, and Help menus.
• Kept menu panels within the application window at narrow widths.
• Added rolling number transitions for package, link, session, total-size, and hoster statistics.

Interface and layout

• Standardized sidebar geometry across Link collector, Settings, History, and Statistics.
• Reworked Downloads sidebar actions as permanently recognizable bordered buttons.
• Moved Monitor clipboard directly above the statistics panel, added the same button surface, and reduced the lower gap.
• Made clipboard toggling optimistic so the checkbox responds immediately and safely rolls back on an IPC failure.
• Hid the redundant Files display mode and retained a focused package workflow.
• Improved header, menu, account-table, progress-value, and status text contrast.
• Unified the speed indicator with the rest of the application shell.
• Fixed duplicated Speed wording in the Downloads sidebar summary.

Localization

• Added persistent English and Deutsch language settings.
• Localized navigation, menus, settings, dialogs, notifications, tooltips, empty states, status labels, history entries, pagination, and update flows.
• Fixed remaining German history statuses appearing while English was selected.
• Kept existing installations compatible while setting English as the default for new installations.
• Localized manual update checks and the GitHub release changelog display.

• Changed removed history entries to red and completed entries to green.
• Unified account-table header text with the primary high-contrast text color.
• Kept Account Overview and Usage Rules within a stable viewport layout.
• Aligned the update-check action to the right and kept Save settings visibly disabled when no changes are pending.

Development and reliability

• Assigned the downloader development server a fixed port to prevent another Electron project from being opened accidentally.
• Added strict development URL resolution for the correct Vite instance.
• Packaged the application icon as an unpacked resource and resolved it from the correct development or installed path for window and tray use.
• Improved settings migration for language and column-order versions.
• Added regression coverage for localization, availability, column dragging, navigation indicators, queue totals, metadata checks, selection, clipboard behavior, and responsive layout contracts.

[2.0.13] - 2026-08-10
