You can create batch downloads, download torrents, preview ZIP files before they're downloaded and even deselect files you don't want from the compressed folder, download entire websites, resume broken downloads, run automatic virus checks on downloads, quickly control the bandwidth allocation for all downloads, and download all links from the clipboard.ĭownloads are performed in the order they are listed in FDM, but you can move files up or down the list to set their priority. I say this because of the huge number of useful features it has. It can monitor and intercept downloads from web browsers, but can also work independently.Īll in all, this is very much my favorite pick that I recommend above all the others in this list. This free download manager is called (you guessed it!) Free Download Manager (FDM). Solution: Change incorrect FireWall settings.Your antivirus program might identify the software as malicious and block it from installing or being used correctly. In some cases our customers reported that they also had to set same access rights for Uninstall.exe file from IDM root folder. If you have a FireWall installed, please check that IDMan.exe file has appropriate access rights. Probably when you updated IDM, its executable file size changed, and your FireWall blocked the Internet access for IDM. That's because a virus can replace the file with its own, and get access to the Internet. Many FireWalls check the size of application executable file that try to access the Internet. IDM is not allowed to download or run in FireWall settings. Solution: Open 'Options→Proxy / Socks' IDM dialog ( arrow 1 on the image) and select 'No proxy/socks' option

Reason 1: In IDM settings is set proxy/socks server that does not work anymore or has some other problems.

On download start, IDM process is killed, and IDM window is closed.Windows shows an error message below on IDM launch, or IDM launches, but IDM shows 'Error connecting' message on download start.IDM shows 'Connection refused' error message on download start:.

IDM shows 'Permission denied' error message on download start:.

IDM shows 'Cannot download this file' error message on download start:.

When I try to download any file with IDM it just tries to connect to the Internet and cannot start downloading or shows some message that connection is refused.
