Hello every one.

my problem is that, when ever i try to download any file (which have space in between file names ie. "New Folder.rar") from internet, FlashGet rename/change those files ie. "New%20Folder.rar"

is there any way to stop flashget to change/rename file names ???

Buddy, is this all u got to solve my problem ?

Never had this bug, did your dl file already exist ? Cause their a place in options to configure renaming in case of existing files.

The problems I've found with the recent versions of FlashGet is that

(1) it misbehaves with IE6 - the URL goes blank and gets dissociated

(2) the 'new folder' box keeps cropping up whilst it is downloading and

(3) it won't retain the icon settings

Yep... Uninstall latest version (kinda buggy) and get Flashget v1.73. Works like a charm!

I had Flashget v1.72 installed in my PC, and its start changing file names (Fill Space In File Name With "%20" Word) so one month before i up graded My FlashGet v1.72 to Flashget v1.73

But still facing the same old problem

Tried to install 1.73 but didn't quite work. I did have 1.9 installed but now I've ended up with a sort of hybrid which calls itself 1.8.6.1008! One day when my machine's not so fragile I'll have another go at 1.73 ...

Oops!

In Flashget (whatever version), under File, save/backup your "default.jcd", exit FG (that nifty icon that overlays everything), go to the FG folder, copy it (and default.jcd.bak)to a safe place. Uninstall any/all Flashget. Reinstall FGv1.73. Try it now. Should work. The ".jcd" files are just a "history" of downloads. Can copy back (after exit FG) if you want, or proceed "clean".

p.s. FG does not play well with files named out-of-standard; it WILL "rename" according to the filename in the HTTP/FTP location/name of the file. Only happens with sites with that in it. Requires knowing the "%xx" equivalents to ASCII/ANSI and changing them accordingly. Run into that on some of MDGx' stuff. Almost never happens. Only other "rename" is according to albator's comment.

@submix8c - Thanks for that

PS - FlashGet now up to v.1.9.2.1028 but it's still exhibiting the problems previously described.
