IDM Help
September 29th, 2013
Depends on your IDM settings – if you had it coming down as one file, no parts, then yes, you should be able to with just a rename.
If you used multi part downloading (IDM default), then no, the file you have is a single container with the multiple streams in in unfinished.
At most, you’d be able to play the first section up to the first part break-point.
too bad mate,i guess the movie is lost
No you can’t readd the file on IDM, you lost the data. Although you can experiment with the temporary files and extract 90% of the movie.

Like i said, only if IDM was set to single stream download.
