2,062,876 B really is 1,97 MB so that is OK. Where is the problem?

Hashed data in Apex is fine. When it could not find the shared files, it just unshared them but the hashes stayed in the hashdata.dat file. So the only thing you need to do is to share the data again, Apex will pick up existing hashes and not hash it again (if you make sure all drive letters and paths are the same as before).

It's just a number saved in DcPlusPlus.xml file for your reference. The hubs/other users do not use it (and don't have access to it).

Oh, thanks. I will report any problems when I have the new version to test

Now I tried the Punctuator plugin (well, it's unclear to me what it does) and upon loading it, it opened svn page of apex (why?). I closed that one, and wrote "/punc" into mainchat, which sent a message with one question mark ("?"). Then I sent text "/punc aaa" which was sent as "aaa". At last, I sent "/punc gh, gh, ľšč" which was sent as "gh, gh, ?š?". For the media players plugin, I am not using winamp but AIMP3, it worked great with the mediaplayers plugin back in the time of old apex plugins. My format string for the plugin is /me listening to (and recommending): %[title] in length %[length] - great music 8) ♫♪ ๑۩۞۩๑ I forgot to mention that I am using the x64 version of Apex 2.0 which is closed beta, maybe its plugin system is making these problems?

I am glad to see the MediaPlayers plugin implemented for new DC++. But when I write /w (or /winamp), the command is also sent to the hub, right after my defined message for the plugin - so two messages are sent to the hub at once: * Mek listening to (and recommending): Ryan - Symphonious (Kamil Polner Mix) in length 0:07:55 ????? ???? <Mek> /winamp Those question marks are some special characters (music notes ♫♪ ๑۩۞۩๑). They don't work in ADC nor do they in NMDC, might be also an issue worth looking into

No, you don't need to forward the HUB port to the computer where you are running the client. You only need to forward the TCP and UDP ports specified in the client, in Active mode setting (generally these can be 411 anyway but it's recommended to choose them as >10000). Your PC needs to be configured for active mode as follows: - Check option: Firewall with manual port forwarding - External / WAN IP should be the one that the Belkin router has on its external interface (on the ethernet cable from wall port) - TCP and UDP ports should be forwarded from the router to your PC (192.168.2.3) and set up in Active mode setting.

Only if he used the slim install method (unpack and go). If he used the installer (exe file) then all settings are probably stored in the AppData folder on system drive.

Description is limited too. I was told that is beacuse of some old legacy NMDC clients. Probably same reason for nicks...

Unfortunately, no, it is not possible. Would be a very nice feature, though.

Look in the download queue (Ctrl+D) if the file is still there. If not, you can safely rename the dctmp file to the original extension. Sometimes it happens that finished file stays in temp download directory and is not moved and renamed, but if it was downloaded completely then you can still use it. But I have not seen this issue that it happens with every file as you are describing...

I think that you can disable it if you disable segmented downloading completely (there is a checkbox for that in settings). Note that you won't be able to use segmented downloading either.

That's because the hub is throttling your searches. Use another hub which does not.

Well I guess most of the hotkeys can be seen in menus, context menus and button tooltips. But perhaps a more complete list exists... does anyone else know?

No, you shouldn't need to do any setup on your physical network. When you are connected through a VPN, it appears as if you were physically elsewhere. Now if you are getting timeouts, then check your firewall/security software (try turning it off if you have any, including the windows one). If not, then maybe there is another layer of security (firewall) on the side of VPN provider. That should be configurable somewhere under your account settings when you login via some sort of web management interface if they provide any. Or you can just ask them if there is any extra firewall in their network :)

Do you pay for the VPN service? For free users they may have some kind of restricions based on ports/protocols...

Open properties of that hub from favorite hubs and play with the Encoding combobox :)

Yeah, it just started snowing :)

You can delete any downloads from download queue (ctrl+D),

You mean multiline input field? It already is in Apex. Use Ctrl+Enter to write a newline character.

This feature is not available in ApexDC++. It is only in clients that are considered fake, and are not recommended for use. But you can usually block a user by blocking his IP address in your firewall.

Hello, good question. To hash a file, Apex needs to download every byte of it. It takes so much time because of slow network speed. I would recommend connecting via cable, then you could get like 12 MB/s or even more if your hardware is 1Gbps-capable.

I don't think it is possible because in your situation, the client has to pretend he is on external IP while talking to the hub, and pretend to be on local IP when connecting to others. But maybe you could buy some cheap hw like raspberry pi and install some hubsoft there. If your hub is not that big, it should perform reasonably fine...

Why do you think so? You can view hashing progress from menu View - Indexing progress,

Make sure Apex has write permissions where it needs... right click on its exe file and choose Run as administrator. That might help...
