How to save any video on a PC

Featured Replies

You don't need to install any app nor extension. Windows 10 and 11 already has installed the app with Windows. It's the Snipping Tool which most of you already know about. It saves whatever is happening on your screen, or your designated part of your screen, until you stop the recording by clicking an icon. Of course it can save the sound too (optional).

On places like Youtube most browsers have tools to quickly download a Youtube video. (not Chrome because it is owned by Google which also owns Youtube). But Windows Snipping Tool records any video in real time. So if you want to DL an hour video, then the video has to be playing on your screen for that hour. At the end of the video you click on the stop icon. So it's not quick.

Because it's slow to save/download, this tool is mainly for internet sites where otherwise, you can't save a video at all.

Nvidia has a video recording app with sound.

The only reason I make videos is for explaining some FS issues to the developers. This will be useful for me.

Videos get removed from Youtube. They don't stay forever. The ones I want, I download and store. And there are other sites where they won't let you download. But screen recording gets around that nicely. The quality is just as good as direct download in my experience.

This is good to know, I just tested it and it works well enough for me

I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me 

I use Flickr for screenshots and videos but now they only let you store them at 2K for free at a limited number.
