DLM (Akamai Download Manager File) is a file extension used by Akamai Download Manager. It is primarily used as a marker for files which were created by the download application from Akamai, and can be used to manage the software updates and patches. DLM files are usually associated with the Microsoft Windows operating system, and sometimes < ext>.ARF Files.
The Akamai Download Manager software works with multiple files simultaneously and allows users to create interactions with files while they are being downloaded. One of the main benefits of using DLMs is that they allow users to pause and resume operations, which was impossible for larger downloads in the past. Additionally, they allow users to manage downloads by separating tasks into several threads. In doing this, the DLM file splits up the download process into multiple parts and works simultaneously on each one.

Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .DLM) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .DLM extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .DLM file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .DLM extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .DLM extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .DLM file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .DLM file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .DLM file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .DLM file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .DLM file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
