[QUOTE="Pat Clark, post: 1017974, member: 123421"] OK. That works. Sorry for the false alarm. Didn't try 10b.[DOUBLEPOST=1375744971][/DOUBLEPOST]I spoke too soon. For a while, there were just two. (1 minute?) Then others started up. The test.marker files are still present. (During that initial minute (?) it was messing around find duplicates and so forth and reporting via the popup, and had spawned 2 processes. The initial tray icon did say [Active DL 2] and when I stopped it, it had risen to 21.) I'm very out of date with threads and processes, but I think if you use threads, each will notify you when it completes, and can return a return-code for errors. So it turns out to be easier in many respects. You just add 1 to a counter for every new thread, and subtract 1 at each return. Meanwhile, you could just not use any sub-processes at all and download just one at a time. It will still be very fast, since it's from Google. [/QUOTE]
