Hmmm, are you sure about that - I got updated a while ago, so it works for me.

Maybe it works in the EU but it's not working here.
There is no Downloader icon to be found.
Nothing has changed since this function stopped working.
The icon was turned off - after turning it on I still can't get it to work.
States no videos available for download on this site (YouTube) ???

Yes, well no in-program update here. Will wait for a while to see if the issue is resolved. :-\

Could it be time to do a clean install of the Secure Browser?
Download the installer from here, https://www.avast.com/en-us/secure-browserDownload the Secure Browser Removal tool from here, https://download.avastbrowser.com/avast_secure_browser_uninstall.exe
Save your Bookmarks via the Book Marks Manager if you have custom bookmarks so you can import them when you re-install.
Uninstall Secure Browser via Programs and Features - RebootRun the removal tool, reboot, run the installer import your favorites if you saved them.
A video to help with the installation: https://youtu.be/r_VLA0HMLQMReport back if that's solved the problem or not.

Thanks Bob, I'm aware of that option.
I'm going to wait for a few days to see if the issue clears.
As you can see from screenshots 2 different errors which makes me think maybe Server. :)
