The major software company Microsoft have developed many applications and software over the years, and their popular products are Windows OS and Office, which is not only popular but used by millions of people all over the world.
We use the Windows 10 and Office suite on a regular basis, so we can tell how much important they are to our life.
However, not every product is successful, and the company has tasted their fair share of flops over the years.
The most noted, consistent, and failure product of Microsoft is their web browser.
Microsoft has also added a browser called “Internet Explorer” which is popular but not used by many people.
The company has not given up on the IE, and they have re-packaged the browser by calling it Microsoft Edge.
I must say that it is by far the best web browser the company has added to the Windows OS.

Best Microsoft Edge Video Downloader Extension
There are too many browsers on the market, but not every browser has the ability to download the videos from popular sites like YouTube, Dailymotion, and more.
If you are someone who is using Edge browser on a regular basis, then you need to learn how to download videos from the Edge browser itself.
Unfortunately, Edge is left behind because of the support extensions available for it in the Store.
We are going to use Microsoft Edge, and by using an extension, you will be able to download the videos from popular sites like Youtube.
NOTE: We have tested the extension, then we have listed it below. We have tested several extensions from the Microsoft Store, and the majority of them don’t work. We have finally found one extension which works well on Youtube.
There are no specific requirements for this extension to work and you have to bear with us because there are a lot of steps you have to follow, but it will work on new Youtube design.
Basic Info
- You need to run new YouTube design.
- The file size of the extension is 1.01MB.
- It does not slow your PC down.
