You need download youtube-dl from youtube-dl.org. Once downloaded, find the place where it was saved to. For instance it might be in c:\users\hp\downloads

Next,

1. Open run dialog(Press +r) and type cmd in.

2. In cmd prompt open select the directory that youtube-dl program was saved to. For example(c:\users\hp\downloads)

3. after selecting go to YouTube video that you want and catch its URL.

4. Go to cmd prompt again and type

   c:\users\hp\downloads>youtube-dl "URL"
   

5. if did all this steps hit enter and wait a second to see the downloading run.

6. Note : all videos that is gonna download will install or place in the same directory where youtube-dl is saved.
