Download Youtube videos in chrome

Wanted to download youtube videos without installing any software or script? Then read ahead.
You don't need to install any software to download videos from youtube whenever you use Google chrome.
1) Create a shortcut in desktop and make it point to this directory


C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache
The above is in the case of Windows 7, in windows XP it will differ.

2) Whenever you see videos, let the video gets buffered. Then goto the above folder and lookout for files starting with f_xyzxyz. You can easily locate the video files by arranging the files according to either 'size' of by 'date modified'.
3) open VLC media player. Drag the file directly into VLC. If you've found the video you are looking for, copy it to the desired location and rename it with extension(.flv)

Hope you find it useful.
