Download the AppImage
It's a desktop app: open this page on your computer to download it.
The browser extension
It hands your browser's downloads to Zephyrus with their cookies, adds Download with LOD Zephyrus Download Manager to the right-click menu and puts a Download video button over videos.
Firefox (and Zen, LibreWolf): one click from its add-ons store, and Firefox keeps it up to date.
Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera and Vivaldi: one click from the Chrome Web Store, and the browser keeps it up to date. Edge first asks to allow extensions from other stores.
Can't use a store? It comes with the app, in its extension folder, and as its own download for Chromium browsers (.zip: unzip, then Load unpacked on the browser's extensions page with Developer mode on). The step-by-step guide shows each browser.
Install in three steps
- Download setup.exe above and run it. Windows may ask whether to allow it: the installer isn't code-signed yet, so choose More info → Run anyway.
- Pick your language and keep Set up browser integration ticked.
- Start LOD Zephyrus Download Manager from the Start menu, then download your first file.
On Linux or a Mac
Linux: install the .deb with sudo apt install ./<file>.deb (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint) or the .rpm with sudo dnf install ./<file>.rpm (Fedora), and the packages bring what Zephyrus needs. Or make the AppImage executable (chmod +x) and run it. Zephyrus connects itself to your browsers at each start; then add the extension from your browser's store, above. More in the help.
macOS: open the .dmg and drag LOD Zephyrus Download Manager to Applications, then right-click it and choose Open the first time.
Linux won't be experimental any more. GNOME, KDE Plasma, Xfce and Cinnamon were checked window by window, with the tray and Dark Mode support, in Wayland sessions too, and the .deb and .rpm in clean Ubuntu 24.04, Debian 12 and Fedora 45 systems. What's left: the Flatpak Firefox isn't checked yet, and screen readers (Orca) don't read Zephyrus's windows on Linux yet. macOS stays experimental. Windows, Mac and Linux
What you need
- Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit; about 100 MB of disk space.

- Linux on x86-64 with a desktop session, X11 or Wayland (today's files experimental).
- For video pages, Zephyrus downloads yt-dlp (and ffmpeg if you want merged qualities) on first use.
