Download your own youtube videos

Last updated on January 23rd, 2024 at 02:30 am

Why would you want to download your own YouTube videos? The main reason is you don’t have the original file with you.

You may be unable to locate it among the hundreds of files you have backed up somewhere.

Or simply because you left your video file lying on the hard disk and you can’t retrieve it because of a hard disk malfunction.

It could also be that the original file is corrupted and you’re unable to open it.

In any case, you would need a copy of your video file to work on it. Maybe you want to create a teaser or repurpose it for Tik Tok or Facebook.

You may also want to download your own YouTube videos if you’re going away to a place without an Internet connection.

This tutorial will show you the different ways you can download the videos you’ve uploaded to YouTube.

Download Your Own YouTube Videos with Google Takeout

The Google Takeout option will suit you fine if you want to download the entire collection of videos you’ve uploaded to your channel.

However, if you just want to download a single video or a few, you would have to use your YouTube dashboard option as explained below.

Go to Google Takeout.
