Owners of accounts of the social network VKontakte can easily listen to audio recordings, watch various videos and photos, but it is rather difficult to save them to their computer.
Perhaps, many users of the social network VKontakte at least once asked the question: "How to download photos, music or videos from the site to your computer?" Of course, PC users can download photos to their PC using the context menu. That is, to download, you need to select a specific photo and right-click on it. After that, a context menu will appear, where you need to select the "Save as …" item, specify the path and save the file. This method is far from the most convenient, since you will have to repeat the procedure until all the photos that the user needs are downloaded. There are many different applications and programs to solve this pressing problem.
Downloading files using a plugin
For example, one of the brightest representatives of this “fauna” is SaveFrom.net. After installation, this extension will allow you to download not only photos, but also music or video. For example, you can use it to download an entire album of photos, and not waste time saving each of them separately. To do this, you need to go to the "Albums" page, select a specific one and in the menu above you can see the corresponding icon, after clicking on which the download will start. The same download icon can be seen next to video or audio recordings.
Downloading a photo to a mobile device
Owners of mobile devices based on Android OS can use a special program "VKontakte Photos". You can find this program in the Play Market. With its help, you can upload photos to your mobile device either individually or in albums. After installing the application, the "VKontakte Photos" menu will appear in the mobile phone gallery, where all photos will be saved. To download a photo, just go to the link in "Albums" or select any photo you like and click on the link. After downloading the file, it can be viewed in the folder mentioned above. The same application can be found in the AppStore.
Downloading photos, music and videos using special software
Also, the user can install on his computer a small program - VKSaver, with which he can download photos, videos, and music. After installing this software, you need to restart your browser, enter the VKontakte social network and follow the link "My Photos" or "Albums". In the top menu you can see the "Download album" button, after clicking on which, the process of downloading files to your computer will begin. If you need to download a video or audio, then you should go to the corresponding link, select the file that you want to download and next to it you will see a special icon indicating that the file can be downloaded.
