.CRDOWNLOAD

📌 A .CRDOWNLOAD container can be identified as a resource partially downloaded from the Internet by Chromium, Microsoft Edge, and Google Chrome browsers. Basically, it holds the contents of a file entry in the same form as it has been received by the browser. Besides, it utilizes the .CRDOWNLOAD definition to specify and highlight that the recent download has been incomplete. At once it is finished, the .CRDOWNLOAD extension is truncated and removed from the resulting file name. On the logic and schema, the .CRDOWNLOAD data items are similar to .PART entities, commonly exploited and opened up by Mozilla Firefox project to mark incomplete downloads as well.
