MediaDownloader no longer works beyond version 3.4.2, Windows 11 Pro 22h2

Review by Lucky_luke on Nov 13, 2022 Version: MediaDownloader 3.7.0 OS: Windows 11 64-bit Ease of use: 5/10 Functionality: 5/10 Value for money: 1/10 Overall: 1/10




I have been an avid user of MediaDownloader for as long as it has been out. Since 1.0 I have found that the program is extremely helpful and easy to use. As time has passed, MediaDownloader evolved, and so have I. I've used MediaDownloader for a few things such as: making gifs, downloading sound effects, downloading music, and downloading specific segments of a video. The small compact design of Mediadownloader makes it extremely simple to use and extremely pleasing to the eyes. As a person who gets easily frustrated with having too many things open at once, I can rest safely knowing MediaDownloader will always sit in the corner of my screen.

Although most of my sentiments of MediaDownloader have been of praise, I will say there are a few problems I have with it. First of all, I find the new features added while nice to have, cause for a more claustrophobic feel to the software. I often times see myself going back to older versions as I find them simpler.

Final Note: MediaDownloader


Review by CannedSoup on Nov 13, 2022 Version: 3.7.0 OS: Windows 10 64-bit Ease of use: 8/10 Functionality: 10/10 Value for money: 10/10 Overall: 8/10




So tiny! I can hardly read anything on the main display. I can't figure out how to enlarge it. None of the normal methods seem to work. Believe it or not, the only option I've been able to read dealing with size is to Minimize. It's impossible to do anything on a program of that size.
