I am working on getting all of the information off of Facebook before I delete it forever. I used Tagged Photo Exporter to get all of tagged photos off of Facebook but I can’t get videos I am tagged in to download.

After doing lots of googling I found lots of different websites that were suppose do this for me but none of them work. They either don’t work or download the same incorrect video. I have tried using the mbasic techniques to get a “Save as” template that is not working. Anyone have any luck getting this done recently? I assume Facebook is trying to make this more difficult since people are flocking off of the site. These are videos I uploaded but rather those I am tagged in.

    yt-dlp is a CLI program for downloading videos from an absurd number of sites. Originally created for backing up Youtube videos, but has expanded to cover thousands of sites over the years.

      Good to know. I should have tried to get that running. If I had more videos I would have needed it
