VidPaw

YouTube often seems like an endless pool of entertainment, and if you want to preserve a part of it on your computer, you need to find a specialized downloader, such as VidPaw.

This application comes with an intuitive GUI, without any distractions or redundant buttons.

This is why even those with very little computer skills can still download their preferred videos from YouTube without too much hassle or wasted time.

The main action you need to perform is to find and paste the URL of any YouTube video in its dedicated field within the main window of VidPaw. You can pause and resume the download process with a single mouse click.

You can also modify the path of the destination folder if you are not satisfied with the default one.

Before initiating the download process, you can take the time to decide which output configuration suits your preferences.

Depending on the source clip, you can choose between MP4 and WEBM as the target formats. Several quality levels are also available so you can select the one you like best.

The most important drawback of VidPaw is that it does not include playback support. In other words, you need to find a third-party video player that supports your format in order to enjoy your newly download video.

In a nutshell, VidPaw comes in handy when you want to quickly download a handful of YouTube videos to only a few output formats.

If however, you download online clips on a regular basis, you might need to look for an alternative solution, with more customization options and target formats.
