It cannot be done with PHP as it runs on the server.

you can check if the downloading is happening. just apply a hidden <div> with some text message or color. and make it visible by jquery/javascript if FILE funtion is currently being executed.

What I do on download , I save it to my database. But its not helpful if user deletes from his own pc, or download isnt complete.
