Rep Power: 1 | I downloaded IDM and downloaded some files.It is really fastest download manager because of dynamic segmentation(read more about this...). But I have one prob. I tried to download 2 GB Ultimate Edition 2.2 .But I could not.Because the IDM reported less than 2 GB space in C: drive. I tried to store the file in D: drive(5 GB free space) but again a message popped up saying not enough space in C:drive to store parts of file.This means that IDM first downloads file in parts somewhere on disk.Then it joins them.  |

| @Power Downloader Open IDM. Go to "Downloads" Menu-> Options -> "Save to" Tab You will find two different options for changing download location here. 1) Default Download Location. This is the locations where you want to save your files. You can change it here or laer when you wish to download something. 2) Temporary Directory. You need to change this to a Drive where you have enough space. This is where IDM stores the file parts you are talking about. a.jpg Change this to D: (or any drive with enough space) Your Problem will be solved. Thanks.  |

Rep Power: 1 | Thanks saurav and puchu .Problem Solved.I don't like the technique of first downloading a file in parts and then joining them.Suppose while joining 4 GB file my computer restarts,then the whole file is gone.Can I change this behaviour ?. I have one more question . How can I download same file from multiple sources at the same time using IDM ? . I can do that easily in Free Down. Manager . If IDM can do this I will permanently switch to it. Last edited by power_downloader; 07-09-09 at 04:45 PM. |

| I used FDM recently. In FDM if we set a default download location, it saves all files to the same folder. It do not ask. In case of IDM, it will ask for confirmation for each file. We can change them if we wish. |

| Platinum Member  | Many people advised me to go for IDM. But I refuse to use a pirated copy. I am not a heavy downloader anyway, so no point in purchasing. DAP is doing the job for me and I am satisfied. |
