Dear Kenneth Fuego,

 

YouTube does not allow users to download video from the site. But here is a solution which will allow you to copy and store YouTube videos. This method does not require any additional software, and will not cost you additional bandwidth.

 

Steps to Download/Copy YouTube videos to your PC :

 

Before You can perform the steps, make sure the hidden files are visible in windows.

 

Step 1: Browse and watch Videos in any Web Browser. In order to copy the video, at first stream the whole video and keep the browser window/tab open.

 

Step 2: Go to explorer and navigate to the following location

Windows XP: C:Documents and settings/*username*/Local Settings/Temp

Windows Vista/Windows 7: C:/Users/*username*/Appdata/Local/Temp

 

Step 3: In the temp folder look for file which is named "fla*some_number*.tmp, for example "fla128.tmp"

 

Step 4: The "fla***.tmp" file is the video that was downloaded to your local cache. Copy the file to your desired file location and rename it "whatever_you_like.flv"

 

That's it, using this steps you can store a video from YouTube easily,without wasting even extra bandwidth.
