WinHTTrack

WinHTTrack is a free and open-source website copier that allows users to download a website from the Internet to a local directory. It is designed to be easy to use, even for non-technical users, and can be used to create a mirrored copy of a website for offline browsing or archival purposes. WinHTTrack works by recursively following links on a website, downloading all the pages, images, and other files that make up the site. It can also be configured to exclude certain files or directories, or to only download specific types of content. The software is available for Windows and Linux operating systems and supports multiple languages. It is written in C and is available under the GNU General Public License. The project was started in 1998 and has been actively developed since then. WinHTTrack can be used for various purposes, including personal backup of websites, educational purposes to study website structure and content, or for web developers to test their sites offline. The tool is known for its ability to handle large websites and its efficient download process. It preserves the directory structure and filenames of the original website, making it easy to navigate the downloaded copy.
