As soon as you finalize the connection, your machine's name (e.g. JDownloader@Softpedia) will be recognized by the extension. From that point on, every time you click the extension, the dropdown will display the status of your downloads, if any. From any page you navigate, you can redirect the download of any element/item/resource you find straight into your desktop application. How do you do that? Right-click any downloadable item and select 'Download with JDownloader'.

MyJDownloader is a super-cool enhancer. It allows downloading multiple resources at once, simultaneously, by establishing a priority queue where the user selects, for each element, a level of priority. All downloads can be temporarily paused, restarted, or definitively stopped. The super-smart extension comes packed with many features and options.

For example, you change triggers and manipulate how requests are sent through MyJDownloader, define your context menus, and even enable a clipboard observer that tracks links in your selections. When selected, a link's contents can be downloaded or the URL can be bookmarked. For every element you download, you can rewrite the metadata values or use the default values; additionally, you can overwrite packager rules or deep decrypt the files.

In conclusion, this free extension and its desktop counterpart are an amazing combination. They integrate perfectly, the connection does not break, the downloads are executed fast and well, and multiple requests and triggers have adjustable functionings. MyJDownloader is a useful, practical, and well-built browser enhancer, and it is totally worth installing it.
