Use Internet Download Manager to Install MSFS?

Featured Replies

I use the Internet Download Manager (IDM) program to download just about everything.  Should I use it for the initial MSFS 2020 download?  From researching the MSFS download and install process, it looks like IDM would interfere with the unique way that MSFS is downloaded and installed.  Any advice is appreciated.  Thanks.

No, just leave it to Microsoft.

I use IDM but it had no effect on the MSFS install and IDM was ignored.

There is no "zip"  or  "install.exe" to download, it's a self controlled download , unpacker and installer
