Multiple File download

RJN

Hi

I need help in allowing the user to download multiple files at once.
User will be displayed a grid on the browser which will list the various
files available on the web server for download and a check box beside
each. User will select the files that are to be downloaded. On click of
start button, user should be prompted for the path where files have to
be saved and then all files have to downloaded and saved in that
directory. Can someone suggest a solution

Thanks

Two ways.

1) Write an ActiveX control that facilitates this. The control could then
download each selected item in turn.
2) Zip the selected files and then have the browser download just that one
file.

Client-side ActiveX control or Java applet.

I have a asp.net app where a user will need to download multiple files at once. Below is some sample code I'm using to download a single file which works perfectly, however, rather than a single file, I need to download all the image files for a single order being processed by the user. Is it possible to download a batch or group of files? Thanks.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
