ru Работает как надо, но при запуске браузера именно это расширение его фризит. Браузер vivaldi

en This is an amazing extension that I wish I had found years ago. One thing that was annoying and almost a deal breaker till I found a workaround is that if you use MIME to try to sort files that are covered under more than one MIME this seems to always put stuff in the more broad MIME folder. Eg .CBZ is a zip file type "application/x-cbz" for comic books would always go to where zips "application/zip" where saved. The workaround for this is to just set for these filetypes the rules under Finename and don't have any rules for them with MIME.

ru Работает, но недостаточно хорошо. Мне нужно расширение для сохранения файлов в отдельные папки согласно сайту откуда они скачаны. Но сайт хитрый - itch.io. Для каждого отдельного проекта ПЕРЕД адресом сайта добавляется название проекта, project1.itch.io, project2.itch.io и так далее. И из-за этого я не могу создать универсальное правило. Вот если бы расширение хоть частично поддерживало регулярные выражения, я мог бы написать просто, "*.itch.io" что б все эти сайты захватывались правилом. Но увы, расширение недостаточно продвинутое...

en The extension works great, I am having an issue where it is saving the files in a folder titled "null" rather than the destination I entered of "Quotes". Apart from that, it works perfectly.
