Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)


Q1. Hello! I'm just wondering why I can't download from filedd... I tried many times, but I always get "403 forbidden." What does it mean?

A1. We are sorry we have tried downloading from filedd several times everyday, but can not duplicate "403 error".
"403 forbidden" means you are blocked by the firewall on their server. It usually happens when you visit the site too many times in a short time (e.g. you are using some download accelerator tools), or when the site is under DDos attack, the firewall will close all visits.
Usually it will last for only couple minutes.

BTW, When you report "403 forbidden." to us, some more details are appreciated:
1. the time you get this message: visiting the site webpage, after download countdown, or begin to download.
2. your Filedd user type: free, register or premium member.
3. your network: mobile, behind router, VPN, connecting directly to internet provider, dynamic IP.


Q2. I tried many times, but I don't receive the email to confirm my registration, what should I do to sign up?
1A. Please use gmail/hotmail/live free email services. We don't support yahoo, enterprise or ISP mailbox.
A2. We don't send confirmation emails temporarily. Your account will be created right after you submit your validated information.

Q3. How do I disable Windows Defender SmartScreen?
A3. To disable it, right-click the Start menu button and select Control Panel from the context menu. Then, with the category view enabled, navigate to System and Security > Security and Maintenance. Select Change Windows SmartScreen settings from the left-side pane.

Q4. How to disable SmartScreen Filter in Microsoft Edge
A4. Open Microsoft Edge.
Click the menu (...) button in the top-right corner.
Click on Settings.
Click the View advanced settings button.
Turn off the "Help protect me from malicious sites and downloads with SmartScreen Filter" toggle switch.


Q5. Which web browser do you recommend?
A5. We recommend 1. Firefox, 2. Chrome.

Q7. Why my antivirus reported [a file] has a trojan?
A7. Please provide your antivirus application name and trojan name first.
In most cases alarms are false positives.
You can extract the files by winrar or winzip after renaming extension from .cbr/.cbz to .rar/.zip and scan the image files instead.
The nfo files inside will trigger alarms. (Updated Sept 9, 2022)

Q8: Why do you replace single files with collected editions? Can you keep them as alternatives?
A8: Honestly, It's the most difficult decision we ever made to replace single files with collected editions.

First reason, We noticed that single files were almost ignored once TPBs were posted. There is not real free service, Filedd has to pay its bills. When we use too much drive space and bandwidth which cannot cover their cost, we will receive some suggestions to optimize our usage.

Second, our posters cannot afford to maintain too many refill requests, especially for single files.

Third, our original goal is to be a platform to share graphic novels. At least there are latest single issues links provided now. So please make use of them ASAP before being replaced.

Four, in our latest posting guide, we suggest posters to replace single files after the series is coucluded. But once replaced, single files wont be allowed to repost as duplicates.

Maybe in near future, things will be changed back/better.

Thanks for Kens*n, Artist*i and Mega*l's options.

I've tried downloading a couple different books and all of them have a 404 not found on DataFile. Has everything been erased?

Has THANOS: INFINITY ENDING not been ripped? I've searched everywhere but cannot find it available?

Suddenly, when trying to download ANY files, I am getting a page showing up saying "403 - Forbidden". It doesn't matter what browser I use. I've got a full premium subscription to Filedd, so I don't think that is the problem. Any ideas what is going on, Rio?

Kezdoo65,
403 error is triggered usually after you visit too many pages of the site in short period and your IP is temporarily blocked by firewall.

Quantum
What does it mean when a comic is tagged with (F)? For example, only issue #3 in Dadpool Assasin is tagged with (F).

Rio,
Is there any way to get around this "403 - Forbidden" error message without having to reboot my computer EVERY TIME? Why is this happening all of a sudden? I had never had this problem before this year.

Kezdoo65,

--To avoid "403 - Forbidden" error (blocked by firewall), you may open less links in short period. Usually firewall will unblock your address after several minutes.

Why is this happening all of a sudden?
--This is the way the firewall works.

I had never had this problem before this year.
--Filedd installed an improved firewall this year as far as I know.
