In the last week Video Download Helper has stopped working. Crashes Firefox every single time. I've "refreshed" Firefox, reinstalled the latest VDH, but still keeps happening. Never did this before. Is the problem with Firefox or VDH? Thanks.

Hi

Firefox add-ons are developed by many independent third parties. I recommend that you contact the developer of the add-on that you mention who should be able to provide help and support for their software. You can find their contact details on the add-on page.

I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

You can consider to try other download extension if the VDH extension isn't working properly.
