How to Download a YouTube Video Into a Windows Slideshow
If you've uploaded a video to YouTube that you'd like to use in a slideshow, you can easily obtain it to do so. However, when downloading a video to use in your video or presentation, make sure that you own that video. Sometimes, after uploading a video onto YouTube, you may delete it to save space on your hard drive. If this is the case, you can download it to put it in your slideshow.
