The Free Downloader Manager is an application for downloading files and converting videos; a download manager for those who want more than just YouTube videos.
We are honestly baffled by this program. It seems to download files from the URLs that we've used, but accessing those downloaded files is a different story. The Help page doesn't really explain things in detail. It does a good job of telling you how to download different files and videos by inserting the URL, but it doesn't tell you why any of those files/folders wouldn't work after downloading. It doesn't seem like a worthwhile download. This is most definitely not for the average computer user, or it's simply not doing what it's supposed to and has some glitches. It had trouble accessing some of the URLs that we tried to download in the Flash video Downloads tab. It seemed to download files just fine in the Downloads tab, but they might as well have not been there, since they didn't open right. There are also a few buttons that the Help page does not have a tutorial for. The Dial-Up Connection button is particularly confusing. Basically, it would be best to find something a little simpler in design with better explanation of its inner workings.
The download was easy and simple. You do need to read through the steps carefully to pick up on the special offers and instructions, but that's OK. The download/installation process was the only good thing about this.

Its great.Cons
None I found.
-
"No problems at all."
Version: Free Download Manager 3.9.2 build 1303
Pros
I don't know what the other reviewers are talking about but this has been great so far. You can download flash videos from any video file that streams online and download torrents as easily as files that are hosted.
Cons
The only con is that if the file needs a password then you will have to restart the download from the beginning if you are doing it in stages otherwise this is perfect.

"Not worth the time to download it."
Version: Free Download Manager 3.9.2 build 1303
Pros
none at all
Cons
It does not resume downloading after being disconnected. Even contacting support does no good. The product is a waste of time and it took several tries to remove it. It might have even put spyware on my computer, a very disreputable company all in all.
