Obakeng Thuto Mabeana (ID: 00000092f983821d) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/26/2023 it does not download the video

Michelle Shie (ID: 0000008f8af89f06) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/03/2021 Downloads only the htm page not the file itself

icon

Nix Crabtree (ID: 00000020ac9ef1f7) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/25/2020 When the target is an html page, presumably with an HTML or javascript redirect, it just downloads the page, not the file it redirects to. I can't find any way to change this behaviour, which honestly should be built in anyway, so it's basically useless for my needs.

druout1944 (ID: 000000651c46f1b9) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/19/2020 Absolutely worthless; downloads htm file instead of the actual download. What a piece of trash.

Donovan Edwards (ID: 000000e3fef2d246) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/31/2020 ***** Great DL Manager !But early release versions of this app were free and better and ripped down Ytube vids lightning fast, but newer versions don't :( I've been using NDM since it's very first release and loved this app for a long time. I mainly used it for downloading videos from YouTube so I could watch them later. Let me tell you NDM was the best Youtube Video down-loader out there for Windows users, comparable but not quite as powerful to Youtube-dl which is an awesome Linux command-line based YouTube video ripper. Although, NDM is a very good DL manager, I'm only giving it 3 stars because they took out the best part that I loved about the application. Now, it is just another DL manager that doesn't rip down Youtube vids anymore :( So now I have to jump over to one of the Linux distros that I run and use Youtube-DL to do the job. But, if you are just looking for a good download manager that works well and has a free version as well, then NDM is what you need :) hope this helps!
