Will put this here as I tried to raise a support ticket for this issue but all I got in response was an automated reply about activation that had nothing to do with the issue I'm facing. So here's what I wrote. Updated to version 16.3 and does not work. Upon clicking "Download As" button the Browser Console pops up and indicates the "GET" command for the video is "403 Forbidden" and the download immediately fails. Retrying download simple repeats the error. Attempted to download in safe mode with all extensions but Easy Download disabled. Same result. Created new profile. Same result. Can't for the life of me figure it out. Thank you.

works well and fine

Developer is constantly updating to keep up with the code changes YouTube makes. Downloads have worked flawlessly for me! Any negative reviews don't understand the process of constantly updating code.

fine and choose directory window usefull

Best!!

Sometimes it works

Extremely useful tool.

I usually use Zoom on my class in the university, and this downloader is really convenient to show the movies through screen share. Thank you and send my love!

I've used this extension for several years, and it's been great most of the time. The problems that we have had are not the fault of the Youtube Video Downloader, but are the result of Google/YouTube changing their coding to prevent video downloaders from working! The developer of this one, Dishita, is currently working on the fix for the latest attempt by YouTube to prevent us from downloading their videos. Give him a little time to overcome this, then it should be working well, again!

the developer is working on a fix

Works great and the developer fixes the bugs pronto even tho someone else caused the problem.

I love this

It just works!

Even though YT changed code so addon wouldn't work, developer really quickly put up a fix.
One star reviews aren't aware of fix mostly.
