I have downloads that are broken because of file size, I believe. Is there a way foxfire can resume the download without restarting the download

See [/questions/761494]

  • Move the old .part partial download and the final file without the .part that has size 0 to another location.
  • Start a new download and pause it, don't close Firefox.
  • Copy the two files (.part and 0 byte final) that you moved above back to the download location to replace the new files that were created.
  • Resume the download in Firefox.

If that doesn't work then the server may not support resuming.
