Windows blocks saving to the selected folder (e.g., Documents)

Windows Security / Microsoft Defender may block apps from writing to protected folders (such as Documents, Desktop, or Pictures) due to default security settings (Controlled folder access).

  • In Settings, change Output Folder Path to a different folder you own (for example, a folder under Downloads or a custom folder like C:\VideoDownloads).

  • If you manage security settings on your PC, you can also allow the app through Controlled folder access in Windows Security.

Playback issues after download

  • Try a different Type for downloading.

  • Open the file in another media player if your default player does not support the downloaded format.
