Hello guys,

Since the Windows 7 HVM machine unfortunately does not recognize any external drives, I was forced to upload my documents to the Mega Cloud.

Unfortunately, I always get a script error when downloading files, or that the Firefox capacities are insufficient. I have already increased the execution of the script in Firefox and have reset the default settings of the browser back to the default settings.

How can I download the Mega Cloud App under Qubes?
Has anyone else a tip on how I can easily download larger files> 2GB with Firefox?

I'm glad about help and your feedbacks.

Is it possible that the script/extension uses temporary space on a volume that doesn't have enough storage in it?

Open a terminal in the qube/vm that you attempting the download in and use the watch command to see if any of the volumes are getting full:

watch df

If a volume appears to be getting maxed out (or perhaps over 50% if the script/extension has to double buffer), then increase the size of the volume in the qube/vm's settings.

Qubes Windows Tools [1] allow you to copy files from/to a Windows VM to
linux VMs. You could for instance mount your external disk in sys-usb
and copy files to your windows VM from there. Wouldn't it be easier than
downloading from Mega cloud ?

Hey guys,

1000 thx to both of your helpfull answers.

I downloaded the stuff before into the Cloud and now tried download it.

For this i used the Domain:work and made the volume up to 100 GB space and 4096mb memory.

The download stops by 100% and all works very slow. Its hard to close the VM on the normal way.

Is there any way to download the files without this probleme?

Or configs ?? Maybe an update to the Fedora template or anouther configs ?

Next time iwill

following your steps what both of you wrote.

Thx for all
