Missing Download This Video button in Firefox

In newer versions of Firefox, add-ons installed by third-party programs—including RealDownloader—are disabled by default. If you recently updated or installed Firefox 8 or later, the Download This Video button may be missing.

To see the Download This Video button again, make sure RealDownloader is enabled in Firefox:

  1. If you have Windows XP, click the Tools menu.
    If you have Windows Vista or Windows 7, click the Firefox button.
  2. Select Add-ons.
  3. From the Add-ons Manager page, click Extensions, then locate RealDownloader.
  4. Click the Enable button.
  5. Restart Firefox and try your download again.

If the Download This Video button still does not appear, you can try other solutions. Show me how.
