Open With Internet Download Manager is a powerful Chrome extension that allows users to quickly open and download files using the Internet Download Manager (IDM) application on their Windows OS. After installing the add-on and a required native-client patch from GitHub, your browser can seamlessly communicate with IDM installed on your machine. This integration enables you to right-click any download link and instantly send it to IDM for faster and more efficient downloading.

Users need to ensure the correct IDM path is set in the extension options for smooth operation. The extension supports multiple input arguments to customize downloads, such as automatic starting and queuing of downloads. This tool simplifies managing downloads through IDM directly from the browser, saving time and enhancing the downloading experience. For bug reports and more details, users can visit the add-on's homepage.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Open With Internet Download Manager requires very minimum permissions.
