Easily manage your downloads in status-bar.

Download Statusbar - Simplified Download Management

Download Statusbar is a Chrome extension that simplifies the process of managing and tracking downloads. When clicked on, the toolbar button shows a statusbar if there are active downloads. Downloads are displayed horizontally in the statusbar, each with a context-menu offering multiple options. The addon provides features to pause, cancel, clear, and manage downloads with ease. Also, users can personalize the statusbar appearance through various settings including background color and font size.

User reviews

really not the same as the original chrome functionality. Only works on 1 tab and for some reasons shows my completed/deleted downloads? I just want my current downloads visible at all times without opening a menu.

прежние версии были куда как лучше. эта версия очень неудобна! хорошо, что хоть "не отваливается". раньше была возможность очистить содержимое от уже скаченных одной кнопкой для всех ("claer all"), сейчас - нет, надо для каждого файла нужные пункты выбирать. несмотря на то, что в настройках стоит галочка -"очищать открытые/скачанные файлы" этого все равно не происходит.
