dcs18 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Google never played well with 3rd party add-ons - that situation has now grown from bad to worse after their new retarded add-on signing policy (this was just one of the many reasons, that caused me to ditch Chrome, for Firefox.)

Roger D Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 Default location of installation of IDM has now changed to C:\Users\Roger D\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Internet Download ManagerCan it be one of the reason..? :think: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger D Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 Maybe you should try to manually integrate IDM into Chrome?? (delete the already integrated IDM in Chrome settings first )http://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/register/new_faq/bi9.htmlI've already tried this.. but no luck.. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcs18 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Default location of installation of IDM has now changed to C:\Users\Roger D\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Internet Download ManagerCan it be one of the reason..? :think:Did that happen on its own or did you change the default location?If you did not change it - you have an infection.

Roger D Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 When u r testing whether the clean install is successful or not, a point to note is to make sure u check in both circumstances -1. open chrome when IDM is running in tray and then check.2. open chrome when IDM is not running in tray and check.A third one is clearing all browsing history and then checking the links itself(VDO integration etc.).Yupp! working.. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
