## Useful for

- Patch IDMan.exe for offline IDM activation
- Freeze the 30-day trial via Windows ACL without touching the binary
- Block IDM validation servers through hosts entries

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-19 (UTC), 00:09–23:45: 1948 → 1966 stars (+18). This is the change over that interval.
- Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 38% of the previous week and a half.
- The repository is 39 days old and already has 1,966 stars.
- About 11 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 452
- Issues and pull requests: 10
- Watchers: 7
- Average over the last week: 32 per day
- Usual pace: 53 per day
- Latest release: v1.6.0 (2026-10-14)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
