Is there really no definitive way to safely use IDM pirated version? Like a script or safe pre-cracked file? Everytime I download them from any sites, it’s another virus.

Can you guys recommend a site to download IDM?

    The only real crack for IDM is the Ali.dbg one. Rest usually don’t get updated and cause issues, make sure to fully uninstall IDM before installing a new version (using: Bulk Crap Uninstaller, Revo Uninstaller, etc…)

    Btw, Free Download Manager is something to consider, it’s opensource, free, without any tracking/ads 🐂💩 (With integration for FireFox and Chrome or any browser based on these two.)

    • never pay for a software that spends more time creating problems instead of improving their product.

        You are right, I’ve mistaken o( ̄▽ ̄)ブ it seems they no longer shared the source code with the public around 2016 (what ever came after version 3.x) but they forgot to remove GNU-GPL from their website until 2020… still, it’s the best alternative I managed to find for IDM. There’s a bunch more like Motrix, uGet, Jdownloader etc… but they’re too finicky for me to deal with… I would love to get some recommendation if anyone has one…
