About:
Backblaze Downloader is a specialized tool designed to improve the reliability of downloading large data restores from Backblaze B2 and personal backup accounts. It handles connection interruptions and resume capabilities more effectively than standard web browser downloads, ensuring large file sets are retrieved successfully. This utility is particularly valuable for users recovering significant amounts of data over unstable network connections.

Key Features:

Resumable downloads for large restore archives
Connection stability handling and auto-retry logic
Command-line interface for automation and scripting
Progress tracking and verification of downloaded files

Use Cases:

Recovering multi-terabyte backups over unreliable internet connections
Automating the download of Backblaze restores via shell scripts
Downloading large B2 buckets that exceed browser download limits

Alternatives:

rclone – More versatile for multiple cloud providers but requires complex configuration for Backblaze B2.
wget/curl – Native tools that work but lack built-in resume logic specific to Backblaze restore sessions.
