The only real crack for IDM is the Ali.dbg one. Rest usually don't get updated and cause issues, make sure to fully uninstall IDM before installing a new version (using: Bulk Crap Uninstaller, Revo Uninstaller, etc...)

Btw, Free Download Manager is something to consider, it's opensource, free, without any tracking/ads 🐂💩 (With integration for FireFox and Chrome or any browser based on these two.)

• never pay for a software that spends more time creating problems instead of improving their product.

Isn’t it like $25 for a lifetime?

Is your time not worth that?

Have you tried JDownloader?

The best way to use idm would be some kind of "trial reset". It used to work great, but when I made my own money I purchased it so I don't know about the state, could still be working now

I use the Trial Reset for IDM from the Megathread: https://rentry.co/megathread-tools

I've been using the one from lrepacks. It's one of the trusted sites on FMHY.

The one by scene group BTCR worth the try, you can get it from scnlog.

I use JDownloader 2, is IDM better than jD2?
