Narf! Just in the middle of the exams rapidshare.com decided they’d give their website a little makeover (for the worse I think). This affects the login and link-check process in RSDownloader 2.1. I managed to fix the application in a jiffy (about half an hour) and now it’s up and running again. I also added a failsafe, as of this version (something I should have done in the first place), the success-strings can be found and changed in the settings.xml file. So if RS.com goes in for restyling again, this won’t require me to rewrite code…

Here’s what you should do:

New users: nothing, just download the latest version here.

Updaters:

1) If you would like to keep your settings file, backup settings.xml from the install directory somewhere. If you can ditch your settings, read the bold line below.

2) Uninstall RSDownloader.

3) Download the new version here.

4) Add the bold lines to your backed up settings.xml file so it looks like this:

5) Save and copy the file to the install directory and start her up!

Note that if you are willing to reconfigure the entire app (which might not be that much work…), just a reinstall and an install will do fine!

FYI : All download links have been updated…

Yes, I do expect gratitude!

BTW: all older versions of RSDownloader will not work anymore, accept the multiplatform downloader… => USE RSDownloader 2.2!
