IDM Activation Script

IDM Activation Script is a tool designed to activate Internet Download Manager (IDM) for free, allowing users to bypass trial period restrictions and enjoy the full version without purchasing a license.

💪 Features

  • ✅ Activate Internet Download Manager for free.
  • 🛠 Simple and easy-to-use interface.
  • 📂 Compatible with multiple versions of IDM.
  • 💻 Lightweight and fast.

🛠️ Installation

Method 1 (Recommended)

  1. Open PowerShell:

    • Right-click the Start menu and select Windows PowerShell or Windows Terminal.
    • If prompted by User Account Control (UAC), click Yes to allow PowerShell to run with administrative privileges.
  2. Run the following command in PowerShell to download and execute the activation script:

    irm https://coporton.com/ias | iex

Method 2

  1. Download: Obtain the latest version of the tool from the releases page.
  2. Extract: Unzip the downloaded file to a directory of your choice.

💻 Usage

1. Run the Script:

  • Double-click on IAS.cmd to execute it. The script will automatically request administrative privileges if needed, so you no longer need to manually select "Run as Administrator."
  • If prompted by User Account Control (UAC), click Yes to grant the necessary permissions.
  • Once elevated, the script will continue running with the appropriate permissions for file operations.

2. Follow the On-Screen Instructions:

  • Choose an option from the menu:
    • 1 to activate Internet Download Manager.
    • 2 to activate Extra-FileType_Extensions.
    • 3 to exit.
  • If you select 1, the script will copy the necessary files to the appropriate directory and provide feedback on the operation status.

Troubleshooting

  • Administrative Privileges: If the script does not prompt for administrative rights, ensure you are running it with the required permissions by right-clicking and selecting "Run as Administrator."
  • File Paths: Verify that the data.bin, Registry.bin, extensions.bin, and banner_art.txt files are correctly placed in the src directory.
  • Registered with a Fake Serial: Don't worry! Use a trusted third-party uninstaller like IObit Uninstaller, and then use this script IObit Uninstaller Activation Script to activate it and ensure all files, including registry entries, are removed.

📄 BIN Files

These files are not encrypted; you can rename them to view the source file:

  • data.bin — Contains a activated version of IDMan.exe.
  • Registry.bin — Registry values to activate Internet Download Manager.
  • extensions.bin — Registry entries for extra Internet Download Manager file extensions.
