7 Download links directly
You can also right-click links in your web browser and select
‘Download with Download Ninja’ to add them to the download
queue. To change the order in which files are downloaded,
right-click them and move them up or down. To do something
else online while the files download, you can limit the download
speed as well, so you’ll have enough bandwidth for other tasks.
8 Enjoy faster downloads every day
Now you understand the basics, the next time you want to
download a file (or a free program like LibreOffice, shown here),
Ninja Download Manager will make the process easier and faster.
The pause and play options at the bottom of the windowlet you
pause and resume downloads, and you can easily manageall your
downloaded files in the playlist. Happy downloading!QQ5
Detect links automatically
You can set Ninja Download Manager to detect copied links
and give you the option to download them instantly. Click the
Settings button (top right) and check ‘Show an alert when a URL
is detected in the clipboard’. Return to Project Gutenberg and
select another link, and a notification will appear in the top
right of your screen. Click this to start downloading the file.
3 Paste and download
Now return to Ninja Download Manager and click the ‘+’
icon. You’ll see that the URL is pasted from your clipboard
automatically. You can download other files at the same time by
selecting the ‘Add multiple downloads’ link, and choose where
the downloaded files should be saved. When you’re happy, click
Add and the file will begin downloading.

Add a browser extension
To make Ninja Download Manager easier to use, click the
Settings button, then ‘Browser setup’ and choose Chrome, Firefox
or Opera. Follow the on-screen instructions to install its extension
(there’s no option for Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer at the
moment, sadly). Now, when you visit a web page, click the NDM
icon to send downloads straight to Ninja Download Manager.4 Manage the download queue
Current and completed downloads will appear in a queue,
ordered from oldest to newest. Right-clicking downloaded files
gives you the option to restart the download, open the file, move
it to a different location, and move it up or down the list. It’s a
good idea to leave downloaded files in the list; the search bar at
the top is much more convenient than Windows’ search function.Explore
