Keeping them updated is essential to ensure your computer always receives the best updates. You can download the latest version of the software here:

Step 2: Once you've checked the IDM version, a notification window will appear.

With Quick Update, you'll no longer spend much time upgrading your IDM as before. This brings many benefits to users, such as regularly updating IDM to improve download speeds. Additionally, upgrades often provide new features from developers. Moreover, frequent IDM updates help refine and address limitations of previous versions, ensuring compatibility with new versions of web browsers. While using IDM to download music or videos, there are instances where IDM fails to capture the links for music and video on the browser, preventing the download process. The reason for IDM's failure to capture music and video links may be due to an outdated IDM version or inadvertently deselecting IDM's file type for downloading.
In addition to IDM, you should also consider trying other software with similar functionalities that are just as capable, if not better than IDM. Check out the article on Top video downloaders that can replace IDM for more information.
