The error occurred again. I typed 'linux hacks' into the wonderhowto search bar, copied the address of the resulting page into the HTTrack Copier's web address bar ( After downloading, whenever I try to view a web page offline, I get this message: "...Oops...

In order to download your page, Cyotek WebCopy gives you 2 options - quick and normal. This means that you can choose how deeply the tool scans the page so, if you choose, you can even reach the deepest recess of the website you''ve picked.
Deep scans take time, but in return you'll get a complete report containing all the links and folders that have been detected and downloaded, as well as any errors or non-downloaded files. Everything can be filtered by type of content or name.
Cyotek WebCopy is a solid, reliable tool that will let you download parts of or whole webpages. Although it's not the easiest to use, once you get to grips with the basics, you'll be able to make decent use of it. 2ff7e9595c
