Windows 10: Stop Edge from deactivating IDM extension everytime browser closes.

Every time I start Edge I it deactivates the IDM extension. Anyway to stop Edge from deactivating the extension? Once turned on it partially works but remains On as long as the browser session is opened.

The other issue is that all downloads are always done by Edge vs. IDM even when IDM is set to download all files from browser.

Issue updating Chrome browser integration module of Internet Download Manager

Hello,

Since the OS of my PC was upgraded to windows 10 last August 15, Chrome browser integration module of Internet Download Manager can no longer be updated.

After every update of IDM the PC must be rebooted in order for the old .dll files and IDM Chrome browser integration module IDMGCExt.crx to be removed and replaced by the new ones. Unfortunately it doesn’t work so on my PC.

Always after updating IDM I immediately reboot the PC as required. But when I open IDM folder on my hard drive after rebooting, only the older .dll files and IDMGCExt.crx (IDM integration module 6.23.15 on my hard drive) are displayed.

Exempli gratia: The last IDM update yielded the latest version as 6.23 built 25.

So I removed IDM 6.23.15 from Chrome Extensions page, then, after completing update process and rebooting the PC, dragged and dropped what should be the new IDMGCExt.crx on Chrome Extensions page and clicked on the button “Add Extension”.
To my disappointment, it’s the older Chrome integration module 6.23.15 that appeared again.

How can this problem be solved?

Thank you.

IDM is not working on Micorsoft Edge to download any video file

IDM is not downloading any video file from playit.pk and other site in microsoft edge while IDM is enable for Microsoft Edge

 

Just a question: Is this the program: IDM at DuckDuckGo

Your Subject and the first line of the text are in disagreement.

What I see on Internet Download Manager - Download does not mention Win10, seems to be for Win95 through Win8. I haven't had any luck with it on Win10 64-bit.

 

IDM is the Internet Download Manager application. Version 6.28 found at their site here (Internet Download Manager: the fastest download accelerator) works fine with Windows 10. It also works with Edge on many sites such as News web sites, YouTube, and video tutorials on many sites. I have been using it with Windows 10 64 bits for several years, but with Firefox. Do to Firefox upcoming changes in November I decided to give Edge a try and put FF aside.

This IDM extension comes from Microsoft's App Store. It is one of the few extensions written for Edge.

As shown on the image on post #1, every time I start Edge browser, it is de-activated.

 

Hi there. According to your link it doesn't look like it works with Edge for it's not listed. IE is listed. Neither can I find it in extensions within the Store. This is what's listed.
