    Any leecher I try these days, deepbrid, leechall, anydebrid (I don't pay for any) to download from uploaded has been regularly giving archives with corrupt headers, checksum errors and what not. Anyone facing this issue?

    Sorry for skipping the details. Using Windows 10 21H1 using Edge, tried both 7Zip and WinRAR. Happened 2 times since yesterday, once while downloading Oversampled Future Bass Toolkit (~2.0 GB, RAR) and KSHMR Mastering Tutorial (idk the size, RAR) both from links on sister site.
    @Kwissbeats I forgot to add that, but due to its 500mb limit on uploaded it was out of question

    JD2 + alldebrid, no issues here.

    Can you give JDownloader2 a go? It should work with those sites.

    Check which part is corrupt and download it again that works for me
    Or download the part file for example from rapidgater instead of uploaded that should work also or visa versa

    I am yet to find a free leecher which allows for more than 500mb files off of rg

    anydebrid sucks ass, it is always giving corrupted files

    do free leechers work with JD?

    Should do, at least deepbrid is in the standard installation.

    Just tested leechall on RET's Concept. Downloaded archive was right in size but had header error and when I opened it in WinRar6 it showed me just some weird file. Then I did a repair of it through WinRar and it rebulit new archive (treated as rar). New archive showed me correct folder with all the rars inside but it also had an error at the end of archive. I ignored that and extracted RET's folder with all files in it. Tested RET's rars and there was no error - everything was/is ok. Seems that leechall corrupts just the header and that rars inside are intact.

    Ohhhh, I have ublock origin. I thought of the exact same thing, I need to turn off the adblock it seems. What a genius solution, just nuke the file itself :rofl:

    Yes, I do. Same as yours - ublock origin. I had to turn it off for 2 ad pages with counters so I could finally get leechall download link.
