This is an article that shows you how to download YouTube videos to your computer from the Google Chrome web browser. The best way to download HD quality videos without ads or restrictions is to use 4K Video Downloader on your computer, but you can still use many convenient websites to download videos on Google Chrome. Note that most YouTube download sites contain ads and cannot download copyright-protected videos; In addition, YouTube video download sites cannot download videos with 1080p quality. Because downloading YouTube videos violates Google’s terms and conditions, Chrome extensions for downloading videos won’t work either.
