Free Download Manager is a download manager for Windows and macOS.
FDM was initially proprietary software, but with the release of version 2.5 it has been free software. Starting with version 3.0.850 (15 April 2010), source code is no longer provided as a packaged download, but is available in the project's Subversion repository for versions 3.9.x and earlier. The source code for version 5.0 and newer is not available and the GNU General Public License agreement has been removed from the app.
Free Download Manager received a 2007 Webuser Gold Award.
