How To Increase The Number Of Simultaneous Downloads In IE 7
Posted November 24, 2008 – 8:45 am in: IE, Registry tweaks, Vista Tweaks[ad#ad-1]
Anyone who has been involved in browsing for more than a while know that Internet Explorer 7 supports only 2 simultaneous downloads. This is quite annoying if you don’t use Download Manager for Internet Explorer.
Although, you can use download manager for better experience, you can also increase the number of simultaneous downloads by tweaking Windows Registry a-bit. Below are the instructions:
1. Type “regedit”(without quotes) in Vista start menu search box or in the Run dialog box and hit enter.
2. Click “Continue” for the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.
3. Jump on to the following key in the Windows Registry Editor:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
4. In the right pane, right-click and create a new DWORD (32-bit) and rename it as “MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server “(without quotes).
5. Now, you need to modify its value. Double click on “MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server” and change the value to 3.
6. Once again using step 4 & 5 create another DWORD value “MaxConnectionsPerServer” and change its value to 3.

7. You need to restart Internet Explorer in case it’s running.
