How does it work?
With HTTrack, users can download a website in its entirety, including all directories, HTML pages, images, and other files. One of the great features of HTTrack is that it maintains the original site's relative link structure, so users can browse the downloaded site from link to link as if they were viewing it online. This allows for easy offline browsing and makes it possible to access the website even when not connected to the Internet.
HTTrack is fully configurable, and users can customize the settings to suit their specific needs. It also has an integrated help system, which provides guidance on how to use the software effectively.
For Windows users, there is a release of HTTrack called WinHTTrack that is compatible with Windows 2000 through Windows 10 and above. For Linux, Unix, and BSD users, there is a release called WebHTTrack. Users can visit the download page to learn more about the software and download the appropriate version for their operating system.
