Hi Victor
So sorry for disturbing all this merry and bright Christmas spirit in the air; it is all your great work, that spreads to all around the world, keeping us tight and addicted to this site.
But, i have had some strange problems, recently, and I would like you to know about them, may be you can help, explaining me, if I am doing something wrong.
It has already happened five or six times. I download printables ( word docs) and they appear on my desktop with very strange names and they won�t open anyway. They appear with names like these -" 3kV9T9yw.doc.part ", "b+_81i0k.doc.part", "IREHqeRI.doc.part", " dhO_tcu0.doc.part ". There isn�t even the word icon.
I usually coppy the title given to the printable, I right click and choose save link as, then I write the author�s name.doc. It has worked perfectly, and it still does, with almost docs, but some of them, don�t download.
I have tried changing the name to .doc, it appears with the right icon, but when I open the doc it is empty.
Well, is there anything wrong, can you give any explanation? Any idea?
Thanks in advance
Olinda

Hello Olinda,
Thank you very much for your kind words.
I think that a ".part" file is an incomplete download in firefox.
I think that the only solution is to download again the same document.
Have a nice day,

Thanks, Victor
Probably you are right, I am always in a hurry, so I guess I do something wrong, like that.
I am going to try it again.
Have a nice Christmas holiday.

a .part file is a partial download file (normally downloaded with a download manager, as Victor says this includes firefox. �None of the files are very big, I�d try again. �If you are using a different download manager you can probably restart it. |
