Although the Internet Download Manager is pre-configured to download almost every type of file format whether it is related to audio, video, photograph, document, executable, flash content, package file etc., if any of the format is missing or is not defined in the program, it allows its users to add it manually. In this post I am gonna show how to add file types in IDM.
Adding File Types in IDM:
- First Run your Internet Download Manager program.
- Then from the menu bar click on Download menu and Select Options.
- Then in the Internet Download Manager Configuration box click on File types tab.
- Here under the line of Automatically start downloading the following file types you will see a box containing the file types name.
- Now add up your extension after a space. E.g. to add the VLC media video web file extension (.webm), simply add webm after the pre-defined extension types.
- Finally click on the OK button.
That;s it now you can easily add any types of file in IDM to download directly through your IDM.
