Easy Video Downloader is a powerful Chrome extension designed to help you quickly download videos, audio, and image resources from webpages. It seamlessly works with both the browser's internal download manager and external download managers, offering flexibility and convenience for all your media saving needs.

Please note that due to policies from Google, YouTube, and the Chrome Store, Easy Video Downloader does not support downloads from YouTube or embedded YouTube videos. Additionally, users are responsible for ensuring they have the rights to download the content they access. The extension also features an "Interruption" mode, which can be enabled to provide a popup that lets you choose between downloading directly or using an external manager, or simply copying the media link.

worst extension. Not working for downloading YouTube videos.

I paid $15 bucks for this and it's useless. Hasn't worked in years. Developer is not doing a good job of communicating that the software is broken.
