The tool accepts links to Rapidshare files which can be either pasted one by one or posted as a batch into the interface of the Rapidshare downloader. The tool will automatically display the added files in the list of downloads that are to be processed. There is only one further step that the user has to make before the downloads can be started: A one time configuration of the local download directory.

It surely cannot get easier than this. A click on the Start button will initiate the download of the first file in the list. The Rapidshare downloader will display the file name, status, download speed, downloaded size and total size of the current download in the interface. Completed files are added to the Files Finished list to provide an overview of the downloaded files to the user of the software program.

The wait time between downloads can take up to 15 minutes and the usual limitations apply. The software does not provide the means to reset the IP of the computer to be able to download additional files or to make use of premium accounts to use faster download speeds and experience less wait times and limitations.

The software (via Eches) can be downloaded from the developers website.

The Rapidshare downloader has been designed with simplicity and speed in mind. All you need to do besides pasting a few Rapidshare links into the download.txt document is to execute the main application rapiddownload.exe. That’s it: Rapid Download will do everything automatically from that point on. This includes checking if the files are still available on the Rapidshare website, scanning for the real download link, running down the wait countdown and finally downloading the files to the local computer.

The software program comes with zero configuration options at this point. This means no Rapidshare Premium account usage, no timers, setting a download path or anything else that might distract from the number one goal: Downloading files from Rapidshare.

Simply paste in your links, execute the tool and let it run until it is finished. Yes, it could do better with some configuration options which would make it more comfortably but if need to download files fast you might want to give it a try.
