About HTTrack
HTTrack is a free, GPL-licensed offline browser utility designed to download entire websites to a local directory for offline access. It recursively fetches all linked content on a site, including HTML pages, images, and other associated files, while preserving the original site's relative link structure. This allows users to browse the mirrored copy of a website exactly as they would the live version, clicking through links seamlessly without an internet connection.
The tool supports updating existing mirrored sites and resuming interrupted downloads, and includes fully configurable settings alongside an integrated help system for new users. As of version 3.50-5, it supports modern web standards including HTTPS, files larger than 2GB, Windows file paths exceeding 260 characters, and WARC output for archival use. HTTrack is available for Windows (as WinHTTrack), macOS, Linux/Unix/BSD (as WebHTTrack), and as a web-based version, making it accessible across most common computing environments. It is suited for users who need reliable offline access to web content, from individual users with limited connectivity to researchers and web archivists.
