Tips and common questions

Why does it say the file is blocked (CORS)?

Some servers do not let other websites fetch their files. Open Proxy settings to route the download through a proxy, or download it directly from the site.

How do I check the file is not corrupted?

If the website lists a SHA-256 checksum, paste it into Checksum (SHA256) under Advanced Options. The tool checks the file when it finishes.

Can I limit the speed?

Yes. Set a Bandwidth limit in Advanced Options so the download does not slow down everything else.

Privacy

Files download straight from the source server to your browser. Wivrix only sees the file if you turn on the proxy for blocked files.
