Bạn đang xem: Idm is corrupted virus
Has IDM ever not been able to complete a download perfectly? Maybe it's stalled at 99% or a number very close to 100% and stops downloading altogether. Then, instead of the file you wanted, you get a totally corrupted download that you can't use.
IDM works by dividing the file into between two and ten parts in order to accelerate the download. At the end of the download, IDM combines all the file parts into one file. Sometimes, one of the file pieces was corrupted, in which case IDM could not merge the file and complete the download.
This can be especially frustrating when you're downloading large files with a slow connection. You wait for what seems like forever for your download, and then it gets stuck right when it was about to finish, and you can't start it back from the beginning.
Luckily, I have a solution to this problem that I worked out a couple of years ago that's still working well. I'll also include some other solutions to common problems.
You only need this two things to implement my solution:
Your system needs to have the capability to resume download, which means that if you fully stop downloading, the server should be able to support it so it can start it back at the point where it was stopped.Side note: You should see a lot of files in IDM temporary file directory, which have not completed the download through IDM.
Side note: The log file is not important since it is not a part of the download. You can delete it.
I hope this helps! If you have any questions, just leave a comment :)
Other IDM FAQ's and Troubleshooting
A failure to resume download can occur because of conflicts between IDM and other applications, such as the firewall, antivirus, or Internet security applications which control traffic and can change or cache all the files and file parts that are written on disk.
These kinds of problems are confirmed with Bit Defender 2012, see forum here. In the latest version of Bit Defender, however, this problem is solved so a simple software update could solve your problem if you are a Bit Defender user.
In addition, some firewalls and antivirus softwares are not ready for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 and 8.1, and work incorrectly as a result.
Please try to TEMPORARILY completely uninstall your firewall, antivirus, or Internet security application. Simply disabling it is not enough because some of these kinds of applications keep blocking access even if you turn them off. If your problem is solved after doing this, then that would indicate the application is the source of the problem.
At the bottom of this web page is a list of firewalls, Internet security, and antivirus applications with known problems. If your security application is present in the list on the page, you can find out how to configure it to work with IDM. If that still doesn't work, try contacting the application's developers to see if they have a solution. You could also try using a different security, firewall, or antivirus application.
If disabling your security application does not help, it's possible you have an application that functions like a firewall, antivirus, or security application that you do not know about. It may have something like "protector," "defender," "spyware remover," or "cleaner," in its name. If you find such application on your computer, try to uninstall it as well and see if your problem persists.
You could also have the same problem with resuming downloads if you use a proxy in the "Options->Proxy / Socks" IDM dialog. Try disabling it or using another proxy. Your Internet provider might also use an external proxy that could cause problems.
IDM is no longer a free software. There is a one-month trial period, after which you will need to pay to continue using it.

Many users have complained that the software is difficult to uninstall after the trial if they choose to not pay for it, and that their machines are slower afterwards as well.
There are many downloaders that are completely free and provide better service (according to reviewers on download.com). If you continue having problems with IDM, you may want to consider finding a different download accelerator altogether.

How to fix it in mobile
Remher on October 05, 2019:
i have experienced this problem once and i see this solution as very hard and very long. I have another solution which is more simpler and just very short. You just have to log your computer off then continue the download again. Then it may take a moment and then it will say download finished

bro ur a lifesaver.....tnx for the solution
Amlan on September 17, 2015:
If the above solution doesn't work for you, then you may consider downloading only through a single connection. That way, this problem won't arise altogether.

I am downloading windows 10 through idm and it stops at 89% .... Is it useful for os download........
Luhur Septiadi on July 14, 2015:
Can i ask you something? When the Download bar reaches 99%, while i am playing some games. The Computer, Freeze. It force me to Shut it down manually. After rebooting. I try to resume it. Apparently, the file is downloaded at the folder. But the the IDM want to retry the download from beginning, So i stop the download process. And the size is what makes me anxious.This part file size is different compared to another part of file. The other part file size (All of them that are not distrupted) is 2.048.000. And this file size is 2.048.001. So i try to Unzip it (Rar Part) and there's no problem in "unzipping". My question is. Are these files are corrupted or succesfully downloaded?

hey people article just updated with video tutorial. Really sorry about my laziness :D
IDM sucks! on February 04, 2015:
I once tried to buy IDM. They refunded my money and deactivated myserial because I bought through a VPN to protect my privacy. Screw IDM. They suck donkey balls. Try Jdownloader. It is a good, free downloader and it will even auto extract the files. Google adware free jdownloader 2 and get the offline installer without ad ware.
M A Y S Perera (author) from Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka on January 30, 2015:
not every time. depend on your internet connection and download link :)

lil on June 24, 2014:
helo, I found my complete download in temporary file, how can I convert it completely
dev on June 12, 2014:
Hi, good tips.
My doubt is , sometimes the file has been completely downloaded, but broken inside. That means the video just stops in between the playback. It happens for FLV videos mostly.
thanks,
Dev

Works fine for stream-packet oriented files (videos), but it fails for softwares as any corrupt bit leads to malfunctioning of the software system.
Kang Gilang on October 30, 2013:
