How Can I Download TikTok Videos on PC Windows 11/10?
Hi everyone,
I often come across interesting TikTok videos that I want to save on my PC, either for offline viewing or sharing elsewhere. I'm looking for the best way to download TikTok videos on PC. I want to save some videos for offline viewing and sharing, preferably without the TikTok watermark. I know that TikTok allows downloads, but they include watermarks, and some videos don’t have a download option at all.
Does anyone have a reliable method for downloading TikTok videos on a Windows PC? I'm open to using software, browser extensions, or even command-line tools if necessary. Free methods would be preferred!
Thank you so much for the help!

+1 for AllClipDown app. It supports downloading videos from TikTok without watermark. I have been using it for one month and it works great on my Windows 11 PC. If you are interested, please take a look at this online tutorial: https://www.reddiite.com/download-tiktok-videos-to-computer
P.S. You can also download multiple TikTok videos to MP4 at the one time!

If you can‘t download a TikTok video directly or want to save it without a watermark, you can record your phone screen while playing the video. This method works on both Android and iPhone without using third-party TikTok video downloader apps.

Okay. Let's go through how to use browser extensions to download TikTok videos on PC. It's like having a little TikTok download assistant living right inside your browser. You don't have to leave the TikTok website; the download functionality is baked right in. I can see the appeal, especially if you're saving lots of videos.
Please note that:
- The extension should add a download button to the TikTok page, typically near the video itself (e.g., below the video, next to the like/comment/share buttons, or sometimes as an icon in the browser toolbar).
- The button might say "Download," "Save," or have a download icon (a downward-pointing arrow).
- Some extensions might give you options, such as:
-Download quality (e.g., 720p, 1080p).
-Download with or without watermark.
-Different file formats (usually MP4). - The video should start downloading to your computer's default download location (usually your "Downloads" folder).
Honestly, this is the biggest downside. I've seen extensions that promise the world but end up bombarding you with ads, tracking your browsing, or even worse, trying to install malware. It's a jungle out there!

When you download a video directly from TikTok, the platform automatically adds a watermark containing the TikTok logo and the creator's username. This is done to give credit to the original content creator and prevent unauthorized reposting without attribution. Unfortunately, there's no way to turn off the watermark when downloading videos through TikTok's official method.
How to Remove the TikTok Watermark? Use an online tool download TikTok Video on PC without watermark or you can remove the watermark by cropping the video using a video editor.
Open a video editing tool like Adobe Premiere Pro. Adjust the frame to remove the watermark. Save the edited video. Downside: You might lose parts of the video.

TikTok has a built-in feature that allows users to download videos, but these downloads come with a watermark displaying the TikTok logo and the creator's username. If you just want a quick and easy way to save videos for offline viewing without using third-party tools, you can download them directly from the TikTok website.

The internet is full of websites promising free downloads, but some are just traps to install viruses, spyware, or other nasty stuff on your computer. Microsoft Edge has a built-in SmartScreen filter that warns you about potentially malicious websites and downloads. Pay attention to these warnings! If Edge flags a site, don't proceed unless you're absolutely sure it's safe.
If you really want to test a shady-looking downloader to download TikTok videos on PC, consider using a virtual machine (like Hyper-V, which is built into Windows Pro/Enterprise). That way, if you do get infected, it's contained within the virtual machine and doesn't harm your main system.

You copy the URL of the TikTok video you want to download. Paste it into the downloader, and the downloader processes the video and gives you a link to download the .MP4 file. While Microsoft doesn't directly have a TikTok downloader, you could use Microsoft Edge (the browser) to visit these downloader websites. Edge has pretty good download management features.
How to download TikTok videos on Windows PC:
- Find a TikTok video you like in the TikTok app on your phone.
- Copy the link to the video.
- Open Microsoft Edge on your PC.
- Search for "TikTok downloader" on Bing (Microsoft's search engine).
- Choose a downloader website that looks reputable.
- Paste the link into the downloader and download the video.
- Scan the downloaded file with Microsoft Defender.
Sometimes, depending on the video creator's settings, you'll see a "Save video" option directly within the TikTok app. If you see that, use it! This downloads the video to your phone's gallery. Then, you need to transfer it to your Windows PC.
