Free users who want to download files from the file hosting service Depositfiles need to wait 60 seconds before they can download the first files. Additional time limits are added once a few downloads have been made.
Some users help themselves by using download managers, such as JDownloader to download multiple files from Depositfiles or another file hosting service. Still, for a quick download or two the direct approach is usually the best and fastest option to download the files.
DepositFiles Download Helper is a Chrome extension that optimizes the downloading of files from Depositfiles.com even further. The Chrome extension basically ignores the countdown on the download page and initiates the file download immediately.
This works on every download countdown window over at the Depositfiles website. Depositfiles will display a different screen after a few downloads, and the user will have to refresh that screen before the downloads start again immediately before the countdown runs out.
Still, DepositFiles Download Helper speeds up file downloads quite a bit. The extension is best suited for users who occasionally download files from Depositfiles.
Another helpful browser plugin that is compatible with Depositfiles is Skipscreen, which is available for both Firefox and Google Chrome.
Another option is the userscript Depositfiles download timer remover and download slot getter (what a name) which is compatible with Google Chrome and Firefox.
