Torrents come to TurboDL
NewTurboDL accepts magnet links and .torrent files: paste the link, or click “.torrent file…” in the add window.
NewEvery piece is verified before being written. Pause and resume work, and sharing stops as soon as the content is complete.
ImprovedTo right-click a magnet link, reload the extension provided with this version.
Updates announce themselves
NewTurboDL checks for a new version at startup and then every 5 minutes, without getting in your way. With no network, it says nothing and tries again later.
NewWhen a version is found, the button at the top of the window turns green and shows “Update available” with the number. Nothing installs without your click.
The whole queue at once
NewWhen the browser sends several links, the add window shows how many are waiting and offers “Download all” and “Cancel all”, instead of going through them one by one.
FixedA link sent twice by the browser now enters the queue only once, and a cancelled link can no longer reappear.
Better on Linux and in Firefox
FixedOn Linux, closing your session or terminal now shuts TurboDL down cleanly: progress is saved and downloads restart on their own the next time it runs.
FixedOn Linux, the default folder follows the one set for your session (~/Téléchargements on a French system).
FixedIn Firefox, the “Paste” bubble no longer appears every time you click Add.
FixedIn Arabic, file names now display in the right order.
Your list survives crashes
FixedA power cut or sudden shutdown could erase the download list: data is now forced to disk before replacing the previous version.
NewTurboDL keeps a backup copy of the list and restores it if the file is damaged; a message lets you know and the damaged file is kept separately.
TurboDL speaks 9 languages
NewProgram, installer, extension and website in French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Russian, Chinese and Arabic.
NewThe system language is detected automatically; you can change it in Options › General.
ImprovedThe interface displays right to left in Arabic.
Lighter, smoother
ImprovedProgram and packages 6 to 10% smaller, with no feature removed.
ImprovedMuch smoother interface with long lists: only the rows that change are redrawn.
ImprovedLess disk access: writes are grouped during downloads, and no more repeated writes when TurboDL is idle.
ImprovedOn Windows, future updates will download less than half as much data.
Updates in one click
New“Update” button at the top of the window: TurboDL checks for a new version, downloads it, installs it and restarts by itself. Your downloads and settings are kept.
NewA red dot on the button signals that a new version is available; nothing is installed without your consent.
ImprovedSecurity: the SHA-256 checksum of the downloaded file is verified before replacing the program, on Windows, macOS and Linux.

NewOptions › Accounts shows whether the browser session is detected; sharing can be turned off in one click in the extension.

NewWindows installer
TurboDL-Setup.exe: installation without administrator rights, icon on the Desktop and in the Start menu, uninstall from Settings › Apps.NewTurboDL opens in its own window, like an application, instead of a browser tab (can be turned off in the options).
