When talking about HIDOWNLOAD, it is not the recommended setting that you are looking for. Since the application is quite smart, it consumes maximum amount of Internet bandwidth while downloading the files. By default HIDOWNLOAD is configured to perform maximum of two simultaneous downloads at a given time. If you want your instance of the HIDOWNLOAD application to download at least five (or even more than five) files simultaneously, you better be sure that you have decent Internet speed. If your Internet speed is limited, increasing the simultaneous downloads limit may result in completely non-responsive and eaten up Internet connection.
Although increasing the default numbers of simultaneous downloads in HIDOWNLOAD application is easy, making such modification might also require additional processing and memory. In case you are running your version of Windows on a legacy computer, putting more load on the processor and the memory, along with the network adapter just to download multiple files simultaneously from the Internet might give you completely unsatisfactory user experience with your computer.
On the other hand, if you have good Internet connection speed, and want to download multiple files in a single go, you can configure your instance of HIDOWNLOAD application accordingly. The process of configuring the program to download multiple files (more than two, and up to 5 as per this tutorial) simultaneously, you must follow the steps given below:
