Free Download Manager

Free Download Manager is a download manager for Windows, macOS, Linux and Android.Free Download Manager is proprietary software, but was free and open-source software between versions 2.5 and 3.9.7. Starting with version 3.0.852 (15 April 2010), the source code was made available in the project’s Subversion repository instead of being included with the binary package. This continued until versions 3.9.7. The source code for version 5.0 and newer is not available and the GNU General Public License agreement has been removed from the app.
The ability to download YouTube videos was included in the program’s functionality until October 16th, 2021, when one of the developers, Alex, indicated that Google had filed a complaint report, requesting the option be disabled. Attempts to download any videos from YouTube currently result in the message, “Youtube downloads are not available” being shown in the download box. A resolution with Google’s legal team still has yet to be reached.
