this is surely the most old software i have on my pc XD.
the best download manager, but the dev seem to be stopped… It is a pity.
Free Download Manager are not really comparable to other download manager, I have tested many as FlashGet, internet download manager… but the problem is always the same, they are updated but the functions are too limited, as if they had been limited on purpose… .
Free Download Manager is distinguished by these features and options:
The organization of downloads goes a bit like FlashGet, it is possible to give names to groups and suib-groups, and provide these with specific file extensions to place downloads in the correct folder.
then the settings, really full, bandwidth management, allocation of sounds, popups, planning, management of downloads and mirrors, automatic setting of speed… it really has everything you need!
briskly* that the project be put to new, or an alternative that is REALLY for FDM!
… … … … … … … … … … …
*sorry i can't find the correct translation for the word "vivement" in french ^^".
The fifth version no longer monitors the clipboard. It can't import multiple links. And torrents not working for me.
No longer open source. RIP. Off to find an alternative. At least I'm on the right website.
Fantastic browser to client integration works near flawlessly. But a problem I currently have with FDM is that, depending on where I'm downloading from, some items will require renaming, whereas on JDownloader there was no issue. This is just a minor annoyance I can get past. Also, I have concerns with why they chose to close source their code, but besides that, I haven't found many issues with the program.
It's so user-friendly like everyone, even a kid can understand the UI.
Best download manager ever.
Simple and efficient
it makes my downloads faster.
