When you reach this point, delete the filename.020 (which is the corrupted end), and join the other 19 parts back together again using the software.Now you have 20 parts with name extensions like filename.001, filename. Don't forget to delete the original file part. For example, if your chosen file part is 10 MB, use the file splitter and joiner to split it into 20 parts so that each one will be 500 KB. Open one file part with the software and split it so that one part contains 250 - 500 KB.

I'm not going to explain much about how to use the file splitter and joiner because the software is usually very easy to use. Now you have to use the file splitter and joiner to remove the corrupted end from the file parts.Side note: The log file is not important since it is not a part of the download. These are the ones that can't combine at the end because the file is corrupted. Now you should see that some parts are now combined and there are only two or three files.Close the download and maximize the IDM temporary directory.However, you still won't be able to complete this because there are still corrupted file parts left. You should be able to see the IDM download progress bar indicate the combination of parts that are not corrupted.Minimize this window and start your download again.

Not all of these files are corrupted, and you will be able to combine some of them.Once you open the file, you'll see it's been divided into different parts, usually between two and fifteen.Sorting the files by file size or date may also help you to find the folder. You can find the folder by searching for the file name and then opening it.For example, if you're downloading a file named Ironman3_fullHD, there should be a folder with a name very similar to the one that you're downloading. Find the folder of the corrupted file (the one that failed to download completely).Side note: You should see a lot of files in IDM temporary file directory, which have not completed the download through IDM. For example: C:\Users\rixpro\AppData\Roaming\IDM\DwnlData\ Then, find and select the option to "save to" and search for "temporary directory" (see image above).Look for and select "Options" in the IDM Toolbar.Go to the IDM temporary file location, where IDM stores the file parts before completing the download.
