Frequently Asked Questions

links.nxlink.in is a free link shortener resolution platform. It helps you bypass advertising-based link shorteners so you can access your download links quickly and without confusion. Think of it as a smart middleman between you and your file.

Yes! links.nxlink.in is completely free to use. We sustain our infrastructure through the shortener tasks you complete. This keeps the service running without charging users.

No account is required. Everything is handled locally in your browser using localStorage. Just visit the site, choose your mode, and start downloading.

Absolutely. We don't collect personal data. Your mode preferences and solve timestamps are stored only in your browser's localStorage — they never leave your device. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

In 24h Mode, you solve up to 5 shorteners once, and then you can download freely for the next 24 hours without solving again. It's ideal if you plan to download multiple files in a session. The shortener link stays the same across refreshes.

In Single Mode, a new shortener is generated every time you load or refresh the page. You need to complete a shortener task each time you want to download. This mode is useful if you only need a single download and don't want any stored state.

• Use 24h Mode if you're downloading multiple files or plan to return throughout the day.
• Use Single Mode if you only need one file and don't want state stored in your browser.

This is by design. Single Mode is intended for one-time use — each refresh generates a fresh shortener to prevent abuse and ensure fair usage across all users.

After solving all 5 shorteners, you unlock free access to all links for the remainder of your 24-hour window. No more shortener tasks required until the window resets.

Try these steps in order:

• Refresh the page and try again.
• Clear your browser's localStorage for this site and retry.
• Disable any browser extensions (especially ad blockers) that may interfere.
• Try a different browser or incognito/private mode.
• If the issue persists, report the bug.

Video loading issues are usually caused by a slow connection or an ad blocker. Try disabling browser extensions temporarily, or refresh the page. If the video still won't load, contact us.

The 24h timer is stored in your browser's localStorage. It resets if you:

• Cleared your browser data or site data.
• Switched to a different browser or device.
• Used an incognito/private window (localStorage doesn't persist there).

This may happen if CDN resources (Bootstrap, fonts) fail to load. Check your internet connection, or try hard-refreshing the page (Ctrl + Shift + R on Windows, Cmd + Shift + R on Mac).

Go to your browser settings → Site Data → find links.nxlink.in → Clear data. Alternatively, open DevTools → Application → Local Storage → right-click and clear. This will reset your mode preference, theme, and 24h timer.

Yes, but your 24h solve progress is stored locally in each browser. Your solve count and timer won't sync between devices — you'll need to solve shorteners separately on each device.

Since we store minimal server-side data, simply clearing your browser's site data removes all locally stored information. For any server-side inquiry, use our Contact form with a data deletion request.
