URLtoFile 2.2.1 · Windows CLI
About
The origin, implementation, and security model of URLtoFile.
From 2005 to version 2.2.1
Jost Jahn originally released URLtoFile in 2005/2006 as a FreeBASIC command-line utility. Version 2.2.1 is a complete modern FreeBASIC rewrite with HTTPS, Unicode, and automated integration tests.
No GUI by design
The product is a focused Windows CLI. WinINet handles networking; temporary unique files and atomic replacement protect the final target.
