Interpreting Link Check Results
The Download Link Checker tests whether an external server responds to connection attempts and whether the resource can be accessed by modern browser clients.
Status Categories
- Reachable (CORS Verified): The target server replied with valid headers and allows cross-origin validation.
- Reachable (Opaque / Direct Browser Allowed): The remote server is online and permits direct browser downloads, but restricts client JavaScript from reading detailed response headers.
- Inaccessible / Offline: The server failed to respond, the domain does not resolve, or the connection timed out.
Important Safety Reminder
A positive reachability test merely confirms that the remote host responded to an HTTP request. It does not guarantee that the downloaded file is safe or free from malware. Always verify file origins before executing software.
