Introduction

After making an Akeeba backup then for full safety of  www.jdownloads.net the backup needs to be downloaded to the PC.
For reference jdownloads.net has all the documentation, with over 50 articles, and all the jDownloads translations.

The Backups are typically more than 200K bytes in size

Usually one would do a direct download. However because of the file size it was decided to add the file to the queue so its download progress could be monitored

Note the size of the file at about 223Mbyte

Now process the queue.

Given the size of the Download, the actual dowloading time was quite short.
