There are many websites that offer online free learning but not every site makes them available to be downloaded for offline or future reference.
In this guidepost, we will see how to download an embedded video from a website using the inspect element feature (Chrome Developer Tools). We don’t need to use any software, or Chrome Extension – with a few simple steps you will have your favorite video downloaded to your local computer.
