How To Integrate Internet Download Manager Into Google Chrome

6 September 2008 32,834 views 30 Comments

Yup, it’s about a new browser, Google Chrome. I don’t wanna give you review about this browser, you can found much more by searching with Google :D . Now I just wanna share my experience how to integrate Chrome with Internet Download Manager (IDM).

Open IDM, Downloads >> Options

Check “Use advanced browser integration”

Click “Yes”

“OK”, it will reboot your computer

Don’t run Google Chrome, but open IDM and get to Options dialog

check “Detect new applications that try to download files from internet”
“OK” to save options

“OK”

Run Google Chrome, and try to download something. IDM will take over download

I’ve tested and works for
- direct link download
- www.indowebster.com
- rapidshare.com

not works for
- evilshare.com

wish it will help you all

    @Josin
    thx for dropping here :)
    I think it must be handled by addon like on Firefox
    and Chrome is not ready yet
    hope Google give Chrome addons ability soon

  • fich said:

    @irwan
    blum bisa kayae, coz dibutuhkan semacam plugin/addon di browser nya, sperti .xpi di firefox, sementara ini dokumentasi API Google Chrome masih terbatas (atau malah blum diplubish?)

    But we can not get ‘Download with IDM’ context menu in Chrome
    We can only download by copying the url link in google crome
    if u get any solution……plz send it to my email……….

    the again….u do a noble job

  • fich (author) said:

    yup, we can’t :(
    ‘Download with IDM’ context menu was appeared on Firefox because when we install IDm it also install its addons for Firefox
    and there’s no addons feature on Chrome (perhaps someday later)

    hello… i tried alrdy.. but google chrome still can’t capture video running from youtube..help me pls..pls..

    # 25 May 2009 at %0:%May %p
  • fich (author) said:

    I’m afraid it can’t :( I think Chrome need extension to capture wheter any video running. I hope it doesn’t take time too long, because chrome extension development being started.
    how about you try this site http://tools-web.co.cc/tube/ to get video link, and then you can download it via IDM
