Force Downloads means that the product will be offered for download and not opened in the browser which usually happens with PDF files.
Maybe you can try a different method
eg. X-Accel-Redirect/X-Sendfile but this may not be supported by your hosting provider though.
That can be found in WooCommerce > Settings > Products > Downloadable Products (little link)
I have large files for sale
I want to protect download links
Why does not the download settings for woocommerce develop?
I searched Google so many users had this problem.
Howdy 🙂
The X-Accel-Redirect/X-Sendfile method does protect download links as documented https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/digital-downloadable-product-handling/
i set X-Accel-Redirect/X-Sendfile method in woocommerce download option.
Download link With Internet Download Manager is a non-Resume !!

Hi there,
I’m sorry it seems that you’re having an issue with the the Internet Download Manager tool you are using, and not WooCommerce itself. You may want to consult their documentation on how to resume your downloads: https://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/register/new_faq/sites2_3.html
