I’ve been pirating my whole life in mobile and rarely in pc. What are some the best download managers to use in windows?

        IDM only does direct downloads, or taking over downloads after waiting the timers or clicking the download button.

        You can just give the download URL to JDownloader2, either direct or on a file host, and it will do the job. It supports many file hosts, which may be dealt differently from one to the other, such as needing timeouts, donwloading from folders, handling passwords (it would ask you for it), solving CAPTCHAs (it would also ask you for it), and so much more. Everything would be dealt and you get the file just from the URL you gave it. It’s a versatile tool.

          JDownloader2 doesn’t support chunkloading though (without a premium subscription), whereas IDM does

        Can’t say if it is better per se, but it is multiplatform which is a requirement for me.

    If you mean general download managers, then IDM hands down. It’s so good that I bought it just to support the devs. Then there’s JDownloader 2 however it’s quite heavy for everyday use. It is a must if you use debrid services though.

    I use Internet Download Manager and it has worked like a charm for me. It’s paid, but you can find the pirated version easily!

    I tried JDownloader but it didn’t work for me, I’m kind of dumb though so it might have been my fault that it didn’t work in my browser/computer.

    Edit: wanted to add that for torrents I’ve been using Qbittorrent, imo it’s the best
