What Is New in Download All Files 1.4.1

Article • 2 min read

Version 1.4.1 of Download All Files is out, and this release is all about making real use smoother: clearer lists, tidier folders, and faster picking of the files you care about.

Download Modes for Downloaded Files

When you download a lot of files from different sites, your default download folder can quickly turn into a mess.

To make this easier to manage, there are now three download modes:

This helps you keep files grouped by site or session, which makes it easier to find them later. A single ZIP archive mode is already in progress and planned for a future release.

Filter by Filetype Group

Before this update, filtering was basically manual: sort the list, scan, and pick. Now you can quickly narrow down results with the new Filetype Group select box.

You can, for example:

This makes it faster to focus on the file types you actually need. More advanced filtering options are planned for future versions.

Smaller Extension, Better Performance

Under the hood, the extension now uses your system font and has a cleaner codebase. This reduced the overall size of the extension and improved stability. It is a quiet change, but it matters, especially on low end devices.

That is the full set of changes in version 1.4.1. I hope these tweaks make your bulk downloads a bit calmer and more organized. If you have ideas or feedback on what would help you next, I would be happy to hear from you.
