Hi,
When direct unpacking a password protected archive, but entering the password into the webui wrong, the unpack fails.
Upon re-entering the password correctly, there does not seem to be an option to issue the unpack again without downloading or restarting the entire archive.
Please consider adding this option. Thank you

If you provide password before downloading is completed it should use the password during post-processing unpack stage. Doesn't that happen?

It appears that after part 1 of the archive has downloaded, and no (or incorrect) password is entered, direct unpack no longer attempts to extract the archive until the entire download is completed.

May I suggest that it would be preferable to allow direct unpack in this situation
It also appears that if a download is renamed in the webui, direct unpack will fail to continue.

Direct unpack is already complex enough. Supporting corner cases will make it unmanageable.
Therefore the strategy is: try direct unpack, if something goes wrong abort unpack and let post-processing unpack it as usual.
