Unable to download videos from YouTube

    Can you please download any video from a non YouTube website and let us know if you are able to download?

    Example - www.vimeo.com

    If you are able to download from a non YouTube website but not from YouTube, it means that they are blocking downloads and the issue is not the Downloader.

    Please confirm anyway.

    As mentioned in our home page, due to the pandemic, many popular websites are seeing unprecedented traffic/volumes hence they are making changes to avoid any outages. That being said, there is nothing much we can do at this time.

    Our request is to wait for a few days and try again. They are pretty good on releasing the throttle.

    I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO DOWNLOAD VIDEOS FROM YOUTUBE.  FOR SOME REASON THIS NO LONGER WORKS. IT NOW TELLS ME THAT THERE ARE NO VIDEOS AVAILABLE.

    I HAVE TRIED TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS ON YOUR WEB SITE BUT CANNOT FIND A WAY TO MAKE IT WORK AGAIN.

    CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO.

    MANY THANKS,

    b

    We identified the problem regarding the inability to download videos from YouTube and fixed it now. YouTube made some changes on their end so it broke our Downloader's compatibility. Here is what you should do to update the Downloader.

    1. Using Chrome, Firefox or Edge, go to YouTube.com and play any video and click the Downloader button. (This action may still show "Unable to download" message)
    2. Close all Windows,
    3. Restart your PC.

    Now try downloading your video. If the issue persists, please let us know.
