I'm looking for a free GUI that can download a YouTube channel in a particular language (i.e. Japanese) with it's associated English subtitles preferably in SRT format.

I used 4K Video Downloader which worked fine for the "old" YT even though it was limited and I had to uninstall and reinstall a few times I got exactly what I wanted.

Then Google in all their stupidity decided to put all streams for a single video together so I can't get what I want from 4K without downloading the video and then splitting the stream some way and downloading the Japanese audio to go with it.

Can anyone give me a simpler alternative to what I'm trying to do? I would appreciate any constructive input. Thanks!

It's not a virus, it's a Potentially Unwanted Programs bundled and it's common Spyware, Adware, and miscellaneous paid to serve programs. Since windows and macs bundle their own types of potentially unwanted programs, I like to consider this as just larger corporations being hypocritical. Unfortunately, the majority of PUP that get flagged are typically worse than what these larger corporations bundle in their installers or products.
