The Direct Connect (DC) network uses Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technology to let users share files with one another. All the users connected to the network can view and download shared files. Of course, you will need a specialized piece of software to connect to the network and download files. And this is where ApexDC++ comes in. It is a free P2P software that allows you to connect to the network and share files with other users.

The ApexDC++ installer is close to 24Mb in size. The setup wizard that shows up when you run the aforementioned installer will ask you to accept the license agreement, pick the installation folder, choose an installation method (default, full, compact, or custom installation), and select if you want a desktop shortcut and if you want to run ApexDC++ at startup.

Please note that the installer will also ask to install some additional software. If you want ApexDC++ and ApexDC++ alone, make sure to decline the offer to install the extra application. But then again, note that by installing this extra software you're helping keep ApexDC++ free.

If you used oDC, DC++, StrongDC++, or another application of this type in the past, you should immediately feel at home with the ApexDC++ interface. The familiarity is quite nice, there’s no denying that. Another nice thing is that the interface can be customized. You can choose what elements will be displayed on the interface, you can play around with the colors, and more.

From a functionality point of view, ApexDC++ grants access to all the features and functions you would expect to get from a P2P file-sharing application: view a list of public hubs, connect to any hub you want, view files that are shared by other users, download files shared by other users, set bandwidth limits, send public or private messages, manage a list of favorite users, ignore users, share any files you want with other users, and so on.

Released under a GNU General Public License, ApexDC++ is a free application. You can use it for as long as you want and not have to part with your hard earned money.

Get ApexDC++ and easily share files with others via P2P, over the DC network. The application is free, it comes with a familiar and customizable interface, and it works as advertised.

Pros

ApexDC++ is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux; installing the application on a Windows PC will take little time. The application has a familiar interface that can be customized. Use ApexDC++ to easily share files with others. ApexDC++ is free software.

Cons

The setup wizard wants to install some additional software.
