Click it to download the file to your computer. Then right-click to choose DownloadHelper from the menu and you'll see the file listed. However, instead of the expected click on the icon to download files, you place your mouse on the Web page that holds the file you seek. When you access a site that DownloadHelper can pull files from, the icon goes from gray to multicolored and becomes animated. After install, you'll find a new icon on your browser toolbar. It isn't a difficult process, but it's not as intuitive as we'd expect. That issue aside, the program could use a less convoluted approach. The problem was that the version it was pointing to was the same as the one we'd just installed.

As soon as we installed it, DownloadHelper immediately directed us to the publisher's Web site to read a message that we hadn't downloaded the latest version. Use the Firefox version for this purpose.This tiny Firefox add-on helps with downloading items from the Internet, but install suffers from a minor glitch. Note: because of Google WebStore restrictions, the Chrome version of the add-on does not download videos from YouTube. It has already been installed over 10 million times. The companion application is free and open-source. Once installed, the companion application is completely managed by the add-on and you don't have to worry about it. This is because the browser (neither Chrome nor Firefox) does not provide the necessary interface. Note: support for complex streaming protocols and video conversion requires the installation of a companion application. convert downloading or already downloaded videos to almost any format
