Can you rename FDM 5 inFDM 5 (abridged version)? I ask because the 3.9.7 version is better than the 5 and until it does, it is worth highlight.

I know that you distribute your program for free, and in fact I wanted to make a donation, but guys, are you kidding me?
This version is one thing that I didn't expect from the creators of FDM 3.9.7!
It requires too many resources! Over 130MB on the HDD. Uses too much RAM when running! And also compared to version 3.9, it has 1/100 of the functionality. I don't understand why you wasted your time to create such a program.

I hope that the development of FDM5 is stopped soon. The only noticeable thing is the interface with modern style but it's too essential. FDM5 is below all expectations. FDM 3.9 is still one of the best programs.

Thanks for FDM 3.9

Why Edge monitoring process is there if Edge monitoring is not enabled?

I think Edge monitoring process should not be there if Edge monitoring is not enabled.

Dear User!

It is used not only for Edge monitoring but also for FDM auto-updates.

I just installed 5.1 for the first time after using 3.9.7 for a very long time.

Where is the Site Manager concept in 5.1?

How do I store my username/password for Rapidgator for example? Is it even necessary?

Thanks

It has caused me problems too, in the way I archive my downloads. Please allow the user to choose whether to keep the server date and time, or the download date and time.

Dear Users!

The option to switch between the time variants will be available in the next release.

Thanks for getting onto this quickly - much appreciated!

Version x86 has NOT been updated. It wouldn't be possible with version number declared explicitly as many users suggested.

Thank you very much for supporting me and many others in this issue. I couldn't understand why the developers are not implementing this. I mean it needs no hard work or coding at all. If the reason is to maintain a static link to the download they could just do it by linking to this page http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/download.htm and for those people who are still using that direct link; just redirect them to the http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/download.htm page. In this way they could migrate. And the worst scenario is described in this topic - viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17606 which is faced by a significant number of people.
Maybe you could help us out by telling them. Thanks in advance.

Videos downloads with 2 connections only........tested on Youtube

Test other sites, please. It's a limitation for Youtube only, see viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17358&p=41678&hilit=youtube#p41678 and older topics about youtube sniffer.

It would be good if the GUI sticks to the selected tab i.e if I selected "Active" tab, GUI should always show "Active" tab or make "Active" tab the "Default".
