In the eventuality that you are using mega.nz as one of your cloud backup solutions or for sharing files with others, then you may be looking for a method to grab those files faster. As the name suggests, MegaDownloader is a lightweight piece of software that acts as a downloader for the mega.nz service.

The program comes with a clean and minimalist, yet modern interface that is unlikely to give you any troubles. Considering its role, it goes without saying that you need to have an account with the file sharing service and hence, grab the appropriate links.

Speaking of links, you will be happy to learn that the tool grabs the links you copy automatically, as the app includes a clipboard sniffer. While you do not have to bother with adding individual links to the queue, you can specify whether you prefer the download to start right away or save it for later. The tool packs the standard customization options that enable you to set the priority, speed or the total number of downloads.

A noteworthy feature of the program is that you can watch video files that you grab, even if you do not have any browser installed on your system. However, you should bear in mind that for this function to work, you need to have VLC Media Player on your PC. Afterwards, you can access the Settings window and add the path to the player.

The application also packs a steganography function so you can extract or hide links that you want to share with others inside an image. At the same time, you can encode URLs and generate ELC from the mega links for enhanced security.

In spite of the fact that it is not an official application for the service, MegaDownloader turns out to be quite a reliable and easy to use tool for anyone using these file sharing service.
