MediaGet does not download files: causes of the problem
MediaGet – a popular program for downloading various data – games, music, videos and others. Unfortunately, the program does not work correctly for users in all cases, and today we will look at ways to deal with the problem when MediaGet refuses to download data.
Below we will look at the main reasons that may affect the MediaGet program refusing to download files.
Reason 1: ISP download limitation
Most often, this problem affects users who are connected to the mobile Internet.
In this case, you cannot download with any program that works using the BitTorrent protocol, and the problem can only be solved by connecting to another provider that does not have such a restriction.
Reason 2: MediaGet is blocked by antivirus
Unfortunately, the MediaGet program distributes pirated content, which means that many antivirus programs can block the activity of this program, mistaking it for a potential threat.
If an antivirus is installed on your computer, you will need to go to its menu by opening the exclusion list management section. In this list you will need to include the entire folder with the MediaGet program, after which, if the problem really was the antivirus, the download will proceed normally.
Reason 3: there are no users on the distribution
The more users share the file you are interested in, the higher your download speed will be. If there are no users present at the distribution, then, accordingly, the file download may stop altogether.
In this case, we can only recommend one thing - find another distribution where the speed will be at the proper level.
Reason 4: incorrect functioning of the program
We cannot exclude the possibility that the MediaGet program installed on your computer does not work correctly, which means that the situation can be resolved by reinstalling the program.
- To get started, open the menu "Control Panel" and go to the section "Programs and Features".

- Once you have finished uninstalling the program, restart your computer. From now on, you can proceed to installing the latest version of MediaGet by downloading the new distribution from the link at the end of the article from the manufacturer’s official website.
Reason 5: viral activity
Viruses can easily cause MediaGet to not download files to your computer.
- To check if there is virus activity on your computer, perform a virus scan using your antivirus or a special cleaning program, such as Dr.Web CureIt.
- If virus activity was detected on the computer as a result of the scan, it should be deleted and then the system should be rebooted.
- Most likely, the operation of MediaGet has already been disrupted by virus activity, which means that in order to return its functioning to normal, you will need to reinstall it, as described in the article a little higher.
Reason 6: Low Internet connection speed
In order for files to download quickly, you must have an appropriate Internet connection speed.
In this case, if you have an Internet speed of less than 5 Mbit/s, you should think about switching to a different tariff or completely changing your provider.
These are the main reasons that may affect the inability to download a file in the MediaGet program. If you have another way to solve the problem that is not given in the article, share it in the comments.
