YTDownloader is a Windows desktop application for downloading video, audio, and playlist content through a native WinForms interface.
Official installers are published through the public binary-only release channel:
https://github.com/JJDing-Louis/YTDownloader-Release/releases
Each release includes:
YTDownloader_Setup_v<version>.exeSHA256SUMS.txt- generated release notes from the commit history
- Windows 10 version 1809 or later
- x64 processor
- Internet access for downloading media and metadata
Release builds are published as self-contained win-x64 builds, so a separate .NET Desktop Runtime installation should not be required.
