How do I save a Facebook video to my computer?
- Feb 21, 2025
There are so many facebook video downloader options out there and I spent hours to find a working one in 2025. In fact, many of them are not working anymore. AllClipDown is my favorite app for bulk download facebook videos in HD formats.
I followed this guide (works great)

And already downloaded more than 200 facebook videos on my Windows PC.
I encountered the same problem before. I wanted to save facebook video to computer, but I couldn't find a way to download it directly. Facebook itself does not provide a download option, and right-clicking does not work. Online tools have many ads, slow speed, and may even carry viruses. It's really annoying. Later, I tried many methods and found that the most reliable one is the command line tool yt--dIlp, which is free, safe, and can maintain the original quality.
Install yt--dIlp (if you haven't installed it before):
pip install yt--dIlp
Copy the Facebook video link, such as right-clicking the video and "Copy link".
Open the terminal (Windows Terminal / macOS Terminal / Command Prompt), enter:
yt--dIlp "video link"
Press Enter, wait for the download to complete, and the video will be saved directly to your computer!
I have used this method many times. Not only can it easily save Facebook video to computer, but it is also more reliable than web download tools, with fast download speed and no compression of image quality. If you are also looking for a way to save Facebook video to computer, I recommend trying this, it is simple and efficient. Finally, a reminder: saving Facebook videos to computer is only for personal study or backup, do not spread it at will!
I have no idea about it, but I use Stacher, which is free and developed on it, suitable for anyone.
