[v1.4.0] - 2026-08-03

Note: the zip is now contain chromium to solve captcha, so the size is bigger.

New Features

  • Bundled Playwright Chromium: The application now ships with a bundled version of Playwright Chromium for the CAPTCHA solver to function.
  • Auto-Retry Failed Downloads: Added an "Automatically retry failed downloads" option in Settings that will transparently requeue a failed or timed-out download up to 3 times before giving up.
  • Custom CAPTCHA Timeout: Added a new setting to explicitly define how long the background browser should wait for a Cloudflare Turnstile token before timing out (defaults to 10 seconds).
  • Open Folder: Added an "Open Folder" action to the right-click context menu to quickly launch the download directory in your system's file explorer.
  • Bandwidth Limiter: Added a new setting to cap global download speed, letting you reserve network bandwidth for other applications.
  • CAPTCHA Solver Integration: Replaced cloudscraper with a automated Chromium browser (but sometimes you need to check the box) to solve Cloudflare Turnstile challenges invisibly.
  • Inline Progress Bars: Download progress bars are now painted behind the filename and folder text directly within the tree view.
  • Manual Extraction: Added an "Extract Now" option to the right-click context menu, allowing you to trigger archive extraction manually on selected batches.

Fixes & Improvements

  • Resume Paused Stability: Fixed a bug where a task could become stuck in a "Pausing..." state if the application was closed during a transition, and allowed "CAPTCHA Timeout" states to properly resume via the Start button.
  • Stable Speed & ETA: Replaced per-chunk speed swings with a 3-second rolling average, yielding much more accurate ETA calculations for files and batches.
  • Smart Folder Names: Improved the default folder naming logic when adding new links, automatically trimming out generic fitgirl prefixes.

[v1.3.0] - 2026-07-17

New Features

  • Auto-Updater: Implemented a built-in automatic updater for Windows executables that seamlessly downloads, replaces the binary, and restarts the application.
  • VPN Warning Dialog: Added a welcome dialog to warn users about aggressive Cloudflare blocking of known VPN IPs, which can cause persistent download failures.
  • Smart Default Save Directory: The default save location now automatically detects and falls back to the user's "Downloads" folder on Windows (or the current directory otherwise).
  • Reset Settings: Added a "Reset Defaults" button in the Settings menu to easily revert all configurations (including UI sizes and warning dialog visibility) to their factory defaults.
  • Spacebar Toggle: You can now conveniently toggle pause and resume for selected downloads using the Space key.

Fixes & Improvements

  • Directory Creation Stability: Improved error handling when creating save directories during downloads, preventing crashes if the path is invalid or restricted.

New Features

  • Cross-Platform Extraction: Added extraction support for Linux and macOS (/usr/bin/7z / p7zip) alongside Windows (7-Zip/WinRAR).

  • Force Redownload: Added a "Force Redownload" button/action to easily delete an existing downloaded file and restart the task from scratch.
  • Error Diagnostics & Logging: Added descriptive hover tooltips (HTTP status codes, timeouts, disconnection reasons) on errored tasks, background error logging (~/.silverspoon.log), and a dedicated "Copy Error Details" button for easy troubleshooting.
  • License: Added the GNU General Public License v3.0 (GPLv3).
