v3.9.8-beta.12 — Engine 2.7.0 & Link Handler Reliability
Pre-release
Pre-release
What's Changed
This beta upgrades all six desktop engine builds to Aria2 Next 2.7.0, improves HTTP download recovery, and makes default link-handler settings more reliable.
🛠 Improvements
- Updated the bundled engine to Aria2 Next 2.7.0 on macOS, Windows, and Linux, for both ARM64 and x64.
- Added clearer link-association feedback across all 27 languages and refreshed association status when returning to the app.
- Consolidated preference validation and removed unused code, dependencies, assets, and redundant tests.
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Fixed HTTP fallback when servers ignore Range requests: new downloads can restart once as a full transfer, while existing partial files remain protected unless overwriting is allowed.
- Strengthened remote-file validation during parallel downloads and resuming to prevent mixing different file versions.
- Fixed misleading link-handler results by verifying the actual system association and treating macOS confirmation cancellation as a normal dismissal.
- Prevented overlapping link-association changes and repaired invalid stored string and boolean preferences.
