Currently, the policy of the world's largest video hosting is such that it is initially impossible to download videos from YouTube to a computer, and videos are only allowed to be viewed on the site. However, you can use special free resources and tools for downloading.
Instructions
Step 1
The ability to download YouTube videos to your computer is provided by special plugins - mini-applications embedded in the browser. Go to the settings of your internet browser and find the tab that leads to the official site for downloading plugins. Typically, YouTube download gadgets are seen on the home page among the most downloaded files. Otherwise, just enter the word YouTube in the search box, and you will get access to the plugins you need.
Step 2
Carefully read the description and user reviews when choosing the most suitable and reliable plugin for your browser that opens the ability to download videos from YouTube. Once the choice is made, click the "Download" button, after which the program will appear in the list of installed ones. Open any video on YouTube. The "Download" button should appear right below it.
Step 3
The next way to download YouTube videos to your computer is to use one of the specially designed sites for this, for example, the Russian-language savefrom.net or the western savedeo.com. Just copy and paste the link of the video you need into the field provided for this, then select the resolution of the saved video and the place for it on the hard disk (in the case of Savefrom, uncheck the box that suggests installing the application on the computer or add the letters ss and point).
Step 4
Download and install one of the programs that allow you to download videos from YouTube on your computer. For example, DownloadMaster, VideoGet or USDownloader. These applications are free or shareware and are available for download on the official websites of the developers, as well as on other resources with various programs. After installing the application, just insert the video link into its body and click "download". The above programs are also suitable for downloading videos from other sites and in various formats for convenience.
