Free Downloader Pro

Free Downloader Pro is a straightforward Windows app capable of downloading YouTube videos in HD. It lets you convert clips to other formats or extract the audio stream, as well as to select the video quality.

The installation procedure does not take a long time to finish. However, users should pay special attention, as the tool offers to download and install third-party apps that it does not need to work properly.

The interface is as clean and intuitive as it can get, with all options neatly displayed in the main frame, thus providing quick access to everything. You can get started by pasting a YouTube URL in the dedicated box.

Once it passes the test, you can edit the title and select the download quality, as well as select the download format between video (e.g. AVI, MPG, 3GP) and audio only (e.g. MP3, WAV, FLAC). It is also possible to normalize audio volume (in case of MP3 and WAV files only), as well as to point out the saving directory.

Tasks are carried out rapidly while CPU and RAM usage remains low. Free Downloader Pro delivers quality videos after conversion and audio tracks after extraction, respectively. No issues have popped up in our tests, and the app did not hang or crash.

Unfortunately, it does not support batch mode. Other than that, Free Downloader Pro should please all users looking to download YouTube clips in HD, thanks to its straightforward approach and rich settings.
