Running KleckFiles locally (with or without Internet). rev 1.01, 250723 == DOWNLOAD PAGE == www.kleckfiles.com/download/index.html www.kleckfiles.de/download/index.html www.kleckfiles.org/download/index.html == INSTALL TO LOCAL DRIVE == 2 main folders: SITE: /KleckFiles.com/ * Local site for bible, browsing, search, text transciptions etc * Very small. Install anywhere. Install multiple versions is OK eg. /Sites/KF-rev-9.15/ * NOTE : On the web site these files and folders are in the ROOT. But nice to add them in a folder like /KleckFiles.com/ on your USB disk. MEDIA: /KleckFiles.media/ * all the big media (videos, audio etc) (1.1 TB total) * The "SITE" expects to find media in a root folder named /KleckFiles.media/ The SITE files can be installed to any folder on your disk. But media must be in a root folder /KleckFiles.media/ on your site drive. Point your browser at /KleckFiles.com/index.html to run the site. Missing media files will be opened on the web if available. Having problems? Try another browser. == DOWNLOAD the Site == In the downloads page you will see the "Kleck Files Site Explorer". The links (0)(1)(2) take you to a "live view" for each Kleck https: website. - Choose a site (0)(1) or (2). - Click home icon (top-left) to go to the root folder. - In the root select all files and folders, EXCEPT "\KleckFiles.media\" folder. - download and unzip anywhere to your target disk. I like to put the site into a folder "/KleckFiles.com/" or "/Sites/Rev-9.xx"/ etc eg. /KleckFiles.com/index.html will open the home page The website equivalent is www.KleckFiles.com/index.html == DOWNLOAD the MEDIA == Again looking at "Kleck Files Site Explorer" (live site view). - Choose a site (0)(1) or (2). = It opens at /KleckFiles.media/ folder. Download what you need. Duplicate this root folder /KleckFiles.media/ to the root of your local drive. /KleckFiles.media/ must be in the root of the drive where the SITE is installed. ** SPLITTING SITE + MEDIA ** Please read /KleckFiles.com/info.html?multi or www.KleckFiles.com/info.html?multi Only useful if your drive is too small or want to split the media to multiple locations and deeper folders. == MEDIA UPDATES : HOW TO == If you are only few days or months behind, update is relatively simple. Download missing files from these folders : - /KleckFiles.media/video/2025/ - /KleckFiles.media/video/thumb/ - /KleckFiles.media/video/poster/ - /KleckFiles.media/video/JKClips/ - /KleckFiles.media/video/thumb_JKClips/ Audio .mp3 version of main videos here (mostly used by the Bible page tools.html - also nice to play mobile or on Car USB etc) - /KleckFiles.media/video_mp3/2025/ For show-notes images, copy any missing folders from - /KleckFiles.media/shownotes/_data/2025/ (organized in yyyy/mm/dd folders) NOTE: Big video files will need be downloaded one at a time (too big to zip?). == AUTOMATED DOWNLOADER == The downloads page has a link to the Automated Downloader. This is a Windows only solution but has the ability to list files as download links and report on missing files. /KleckFiles.com/getkleckfiles.html or www.KleckFiles.com/getkleckfiles.html == ASK FOR A DISK === If you are building a Full 1.1 TB disk from scratch it's usually easier to ask someone to send you a copy of their disk in the post. Cost of new Kingston XS1000 2TB USB disk (Gen 2 / double speed / recommended) - Check Amazon.com == Not enough disk space for all 1.1 TB? == Again you can split the media across 2 or more locations. Read /KleckFiles.com/info.html?multi or www.KleckFiles.com/info.html?multi == Disk Format == New disks come formatted as FAT32 or EXFAT as these old formats are compatible with most phones and TVs. However be aware small files (like the millions of show-notes images) will take up a lot of extra space as they align to larger disk cluster boundaries (1.1 TB quickly becomes 1.3 TB). Where possible always reformat a USB disk as NTFS (for windows, readable under Apple). Or APFS (Apple File System). These more modern disk formats are very efficient with storage and more robust (won't corrupt easily). == RUN KleckFiles == - Open home page in browser /KleckFiles.com/index.html - For TV and Phone you probably need to open the videos directly. - Some newer TV or Phone Internet browsers may let you browse the SITE ?? Open the site using any modern HTML5 web browser. FireFox, Brave, Edge, Opera, DuckDuckGo etc. Any browser except Google Chrome which seems to be allergic to Christian truth material (bizare problems) I deleted Chrome from my Windows 10 machine and 90% of "problems" disappeared. == Security == Keep an offline copy as backup. Don't allow antivirus programs or AI to scan your KleckFiles disk. Exclusion lists. Windows users can mark their drive READONLY so that files cannot be removed. Can reversible anytime.
