Facebook requires a user name and password to access any content, including videos. When you attempt to download a video from Facebook using YouTube Downloader, YouTube Downloader will prompt you for your Facebook username and password so that it can download the video for you. This is the user name and password you use on Facebook. YouTube Downloader does not have user accounts. In order to keep your information safe, your username and password are only used for the current running instance of YouTube Downloader and will not be saved on your computer. Once you exit YouTube Downloader, it will forget your account information and you will need to enter it again the next time you use YouTube Downloader to download a video from Facebook.
