Microsoft Download Manager is free and available for download now. It also allows you to suspend active downloads and resume downloads that have failed. It gives you the ability to download multiple files at one time and download large files quickly and reliably. The Microsoft Download Manager solves these potential problems. You might not be able to pause the active downloads or resume downloads that have failed. (You would have the opportunity to download individual files on the "Thank you for downloading" page after completing your download.)įiles larger than 1 GB may take much longer to download and might not download correctly. In this case, you will have to download the files individually. You may not be able to download multiple files at the same time. If you do not have a download manager installed, and still want to download the file(s) you've chosen, please note:

Stand-alone download managers also are available, including the Microsoft Download Manager. Many web browsers, such as Internet Explorer 9, include a download manager.

Generally, a download manager enables downloading of large files or multiples files in one session.
