    Hello,
    A few days ago, the "Download Video" app stopped working. It cannot detect youtube videos (attachment: video not found [Polish text]), when I paste a playlist, I get the message "video is unavailable".
    I'm running Windows 11 build 22621.1265

    As we can see from the technical report, you are using previous version of Parallels Toolbox.
    Kindly update it o the latest one and check. Issue should be addressed.

    Hi @PaulC59 , Upon inspection of your logs, it seems that the video you are trying to download is not available. Even YouTube showed restrictions for viewing. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about this particular video as YouTube restricts us. Thank you for sending us report, so we could understand the issue properly.

    So, there is a way for YouTube to restrict the download of videos? I know it's available because I can watch it. But, I thought all videos were downloadable through Parallels....

    Greetings PaulC59,
    If the video is restricted even on Youtube's side, we cannot access it either.
    As mentioned before, there is nothing we can do about this video as YouTube restricts us. Thank you for sending us a report, so we could understand the issue properly.

    It seems there may be an issue with the "Download Video" app, particularly in detecting YouTube videos and playlists. This could be due to changes in YouTube's platform or a compatibility issue with the app itself. Since you're running Windows 11 build 22621.1265, consider checking for updates for both the app and your operating system. Additionally, you may want to reach out to the developer for support or look for alternative apps that offer similar functionality.
