Default No permission to write to hard disk - error message

I will add some more tips when I have time, but one that I just learned yesterday that I'd like to share:

With certain file hosts (oron, for example) I would get a file partially downloaded, then it would stop permanently with an error message: "No permission to write to hard disk".

If I "reset" the file (right click and choose "reset", which deletes the partial file and starts over from beginning) it would often have the same result: partial download and same error message, plus there was a long wait time between downloads.

BTW, if you have a dynamic IP, you can avoid the wait time between downloads by setting "reconnect" properly. I have a static IP, so I don't have that option.

I found the fix at the jdownloader.org forum (there are other fixes listed, but the first one on the list worked for me):

Change "Max. Con." (max connections) at lower right to 1.

You can still download more than one file at a time, but the max connections per file is set to 1. Apparently this made the difference, because I no longer have a problem with files not completing and I don't get the "No permissions to write to hard disk" error any more.

If you have other questions/issues with JD, I highly recommend the forum:

Code:

Here is the post where I found that solution, with additional things to try:
