v3.8.6-beta.3 — Deep Link & Filename Reliability Fixes

pre-release8 hours ago

What's Changed

This beta improves external download handoff reliability across hidden/lightweight app states and fixes authenticated filename resolution for browser-extension downloads, especially non-Latin filenames from services such as Gmail.

🛠 Improvements

  • Unified external download routing through a frontend deep-link queue so hidden or lightweight-mode windows can wake and process incoming tasks safely.
  • Added authenticated filename probing with forwarded Referer and Cookie headers for extensionless download URLs.
  • Improved browser extension filename hint handling; generic placeholders like download are no longer treated as real output filenames.
  • Preserved meaningful Unicode filename hints, including Cyrillic and CJK names, when they are provided by the extension.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed macOS lightweight-mode freezes when opening .torrent files while the main window is closed.
  • Fixed extension-submitted downloads saving as download instead of the original filename such as Итоги_2026.docx.
  • Fixed cases where aria2 received invalid placeholder or mojibake-style output names on Windows.
  • Reduced duplicate routing behavior between HTTP API, deep-link fallback, and frontend event handling.
