Internet Download Manager

Internet Download Manager is a download manager for Windows that allows you to optimize, organize and speed up your downloads from any browser or server. Thanks to its intelligent segmentation system, you can increase download speeds, even when on slow or unstable network connections. What's more, it is compatible with all the major web browsers, integrating seamlessly to automatically capture any downloadable link.

Compatible with all types of browsers and protocols

Internet Download Manager is compatible with all the most popular web browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Opera, and many more. As soon as it detects a download link (regardless of the file type), a pop-up window appears where you can decide if you want to start the download directly through Internet Download Manager. The program supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and MMS protocols, allowing you to download files from almost any website or server without having to worry about compatibility. This includes streaming platforms, private FTP servers or pages with connection restrictions.

Download videos from streaming sites with one click

Internet Download Manager also allows you to download videos directly from sites like YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion and other streaming services. When it detects a video on a compatible page, it automatically displays a button in the top right which allows you to download it in different qualities, including HD and Full HD resolutions. To make use of this and other features, such as automatic downloads, you have to enable the IDM extension in your browser.

Advanced programming and automation

Internet Download Manager allows you to schedule downloads to start automatically at specific times. This is ideal if you tend to leave your computer on overnight or prefer to download files when you are not using your available bandwidth for other tasks. All downloads are queued and, at the time you set, everything will start downloading. You can even automatically shut down the computer once all downloads have finished. You can also configure rules so that certain types of files are automatically downloaded to specific folders, which makes it easier to organize your downloads.

Interrupted download recovery

Another interesting feature within Internet Download Manager is the ability to resume interrupted downloads. If you lose Internet connectivity, if you are disconnected from the server or even if you accidentally turn off your PC, you can continue the download from where it left off without having to start again from the beginning. This is especially useful for large downloads or servers that limit bandwidth, as it means you don't have to start from scratch.

Automatic file filters and categories

Internet Download Manager allows you to create custom filters and automatic categories to organize your downloads by file type. For example, you can send video files to one folder, while storing PDF or ZIP files in another.

Antivirus integration and automatic scans

To protect your computer, you can configure Internet Download Manager to automatically run a scan with your preferred antivirus after each download is complete. This way you can ensure that the files you have downloaded are free of threats before opening them.
