    Love the program.
    On my put account, I created a folder called downloads.
    I have your downloader program download everything that I transfer into there to my computer. But I it only downloads the files. Like I might in one day download a bunch of apps that go in their own folder from torrents into my download folder.
    Then your program will download everything ok, but it doesn’t download the folders and keep the files in their prospective folders.
    Like example of a folder tree….
    Downloads-
    ES File explorer-
    All files in this folder
    Total commander-
    All files in that folder

    And when the downloader downloads, it just downloads all the files to my local folder of download. So by the end of the day I end up with a huge mess of files and no folders.
    Anyway to get it to download the complete directory structure?
    Thanks for the work you have put into this!

    Got it figured out. For some reason it wasnt saving the preference to use the folders. All fixed now...

    Hello Richard. I was about to suggest you to play with the "Directory Structure" setting under "Download" tab in preferences. But then happily saw that you already solved the problem yourself. Thanks for using program!

      no problem. Great little goodie. If I had one thing to request is that when it deletes from the server after downloading, that it could delete the folders on the server as well. I can have 30 folders in my download folder by the end of the day. Put will download like it should, folders and files. But it wont delete the folders on the PUT server.
      You have a great night and good little program...

    For that purpose you can activate "Delete empty subfolders" option on Connection tab in Preferences. If this option checked, put.io Download Manager deletes all empty (sub)folders during check for new files on server.
