Hi, I have the exact same key and port set in Motrix for Windows (v1.8.19) and Motrix Chrome extension (v23.12.10) but when I download a file (for example a .rar) from Chrome, Motrix is starting to download it, it is the Chrome built-in download system that is downloading the file. How to fix this ?

I have the same issue but in Firefox. It's quite essential to have an extension to use else Motrix loses its value to me. I guess I'll stick with HTTP Downloader (Windows only) for now.

I, too, am having this very same issue. It was working, then stopped, I re-did all the configs as shown above. still using the Chrome download, not Motrix.
