Maybe we should disable this function optional? For example, add forcemode for it?
How to monitor the progress of URLDownloadToFile so we can display the progress in GUI? |

The ability to monitor the progress of a download is planned. There might be other improvements too.
Thanks. |

How about making an option for it to automatically "pause" persay, if your less then quality dialup connection like mine cuts out and then resume once connectivity is restablished?  _________________ "It was when I found out I could make mistakes that I knew I was on to something."

| Resuming an interrupted download probably won't be added as a feature (except to the extent that it's already supported by by the built-in OS functions that AutoHotkey calls). Therefore, it would probably be better to use a command line utility that has the capability to resume. |

| Would adding an option to return the size that the file was reported to be in an optional variable be a possibility? |

There is a plan to add the ability to query the size of a remote/HTTP file. In the meantime, I'm pretty sure there's a way to get the size via DllCall, perhaps via:
HttpQueryInfo(hResource, 5, ...) ; 5 is HTTP_QUERY_CONTENT_LENGTH. |
