jDownloader: Plugin broken - how to fix it

jDownloader: plugin broken - how to fix it

If you have inserted a file for download into jDownloader and receive an error message that a plugin is broken, this can have various causes. To minimize such problems, it is important that you always keep both jDownloader and Java up to date.

• If the errors occur despite having up-to-date software, try downloading the file directly from the hoster. If the download still fails, there is a problem with the hosted file. In such a case, you have no choice but to switch to another source file.
• However, if the download starts normally via the website, the problem lies with the jDownloader. Remove the faulty part from the download list and add the link again. Again, try to download the file from another hoster.
• Further, you can try to reduce the number of active downloads.
• Another option is to reinstall the jDownloader.

If the problem still persists, keep the faulty downloads in the list and wait for the next jDownloader update. The developers regularly provide the jDownloader with new plugins adapted to corresponding changes in the hosters.
