    Why do you want to change it?  The IE download manager works fine.

        Contact the company that made this 'latest and greatest' download manager, it's up to them to tell you how to install it.  If they can't it's bunk.

        Which browser is the default?
        Having a separate download manager allows on e to close the browser and go do something else.
        Here is the documentation for Firefox:
        https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-firefox-behavior-when-open-file

        Otherwise, you would have to copy the URL and paste it into the other download manager.
