Although modern browsers mostly are enough for everyday downloads, they do not have convenient and sometimes so necessary features as download queuing, priority setup, download speed management, and much more. That’s okay if you are downloading files infrequently, but otherwise, you would probably want something more time-efficient.
We think that Free Download Manager has enough in it to be called time-efficient. It is essentially a BitTorrent client with great file download capabilities. Let us explain you why.
Free Download Manager can be set up to catch downloads from your web browsers. Besides, it can be set as the default program to work with magnet links and torrent files. This means that you just need to install the Free Download Manager once, set it up, and start downloading.
Free Download Manager is capable of resuming broken downloads. This is partly because this program splits files into several parts when possible, so when something goes wrong, the program will just download the missing files. But we feel that you probably shouldn’t expect this to work every time.
Free Download Manager allows you to manage your downloads with a wide range of settings. It features file management and scheduler to allow you to start/pause downloading files and perform other actions at a set time. Besides, you can flexibly adjust traffic usage to allow you to have enough speed left to browse the Internet while downloading.
Free Download Manager can also download videos from YouTube quite easily. You just need to paste the video’s URL into the program for it to identify it and start downloading. No fine tuning necessary whatsoever! In the end, you could also convert the file format of video, as well as audio after download.
Among other remarkable features of Free Download Manager is that it allows you to download only the necessary files from zip archives. Besides, Free Download Manager can explore the structure of a website to help you easily download the necessary files.
And the best part is that Free Download Manager is completely free and open source! This software is available for Windows XP and higher, as well as Mac OS X 10.9 and later.
