What's new in MegaDownloader 1.8
Jun 24, 2020
- Recently, MEGA made some changes and new links appear with a new format.
- Instead of:
- https://mega.nz/#!FILE_ID!FILE_KEY
- new links have the format:
- https://mega.nz/file/FILE_ID#FILE_KEY
- This caused Megadownloader not to recognize the new links.
- A manual workaround was possible, by modifying the links manually.
- Version 1.8 has corrected this issue and now it supports files (and folders) in the new format.
