maybe you have activated "autopush Pause on startup". (Setup -> Misc). (It is not clear to me if this happens during downloading or on startup).

What is the displayed free space in Alt.Binz? (bottom right).

P.s: I am going to buy me a crystall ball now  :wink:  :mrgreen:

If that doesn't answer your question....

So either there's less space on your download drive than you think there is, or you've set the autopause limit higher than you think you have.

Remember that the download drive/folder can be either default (Setup > Download > Default download folder) or set manually for each item in the queue, or set manually via RSS filters.  Check the Download Folder column in the queue to be sure.  And as cr4zyfr4g pointed out, on the far right of your status bar you should see the free space on your *default* drive.

If your problem persists, check whether the drive that contains your temporary folder (Setup > Download) has enough space left.

I used to have my temp folder on a ramdrive, which filled up pretty quickly when downloading very large files (100MB+). If that happens, your queue will automatically pause, too.

@ afdad

Yes, very true!  Forgot about that, I use one of those, too (RAMDisk here), and you have to be careful that the file parts are a reasonable size, or the RAM drive can get choked and trigger autopausing.  This usually happens with me when quite a few files have articles not found, and are all waiting to retry the server while filling up the temp folder with the next set of files.
