Why IDM shows Update Notice Dialog?
What could’ve happened?
Crucial files of IDM could have been deleted by Security applications installed on your computer like antivirus. We’ve contacted the IDM support team about this error, they said ” This can happen if some application on your computer blocked or deleted IDM files. It can be some security application like antivirus.”
Exactly this happened to me, the integrated Browser Cleanup tool in Avast on running, suggested me to remove IDM integration (IDMIEHlprObjClass) extension in Internet Explorer (which I don’t use) because of poor reputation, I allowed it to remove it, guess what happened? That above said error welcomed me after the restart of the computer.
