Fresh Download

Fresh Download doesn’t accelerate downloads as fast as either Free Download Manager or Orbit Downloader, and it lacks the majority of their advanced features. Having said that, its simplicity makes it an incredibly user-friendly option. You can pause and resume downloads, schedule them for later and scan files for viruses using your anti-virus software. It also comes with a built-in zip file extractor. Annoyingly, like all Fresh Devices’ software, you have to register if you want to use it after an 11-day period. It’s free to do so, but we’ve found the code occasionally takes an age to arrive, sometimes gets lost, or (most annoying of all) simply doesn’t work.
