Download Dilemma

I have 2 problems with downloads. Every time I upload a project, by the time it has 3 views it has one download. Now, there is a chance that someone is downloading every single project I make, but it seems unlikely to me. Another problem I have is when I download a project, I have to open the image file for Scratch before I can continue. That is not my problem. In order to view the project, however, I need to open my download folder, right click the project, open the containing folder, send it to my documents, and open it in Scratch, all because it downloaded before I opened the image file. This happens every time! Is there any way for a purge of My Documents to remove all Scratch downloaded files? They take up a lot of space, and when I am done viewing the scripts I would like to delete them quickly and easily. This only started when I downloaded "Cube world 2" although to no fault of the program itself. Somebody please help me with my download dilemma!

Re: Download Dilemma

I had some issues with downloads after I experimented with some of Jens projects...the projects would no longer open in Scratch automatically after downloading.  I fixed it by reinstalling Scratch.  You might want to try that - just be sure that you don't uninstall first (unless that bug that deletes all your projects in the Program Files area has been fixed).  Either way, I would just try another install without an uninstall.

I already did that twice  hmm  of course now that I have NetScratch it would probably do that anyway........

Re: Download Dilemma

I dont know how that happened but I think you can just save it to your desktop or before you download it, you select open and then view that project. This
has never happened to me before.
