4.	The option Force Hot Download is used when it's wished that the system re-enables the Hot Download to the resource, after the user having realized one operation that disables it.

Example: The user create a local variable after the system having informed him that the creation of the same will disable Hot Download, in case the user regrets and excludes this variable he can then use the option Force Hot Download so the system will keep allowing Hot Download in the same way it was allowing before the creation of this variable.
