 You can export your cookies to a text file without any third-party software by using yt-dlp's `--cookies-from-browser` option in conjunction with the `--cookies` option, for example: `yt-dlp --cookies-from-browser chrome --cookies cookies.txt`. yt-dlp will extract the browser cookies and save them to the filepath specified after `--cookies`. The resulting text file can then be used with the `--cookies` option. Note though that this method exports your browser's cookies for ALL sites (even if you passed a URL to yt-dlp), so take care in not letting this text file fall into the wrong hands.
 
-You may also use a conforming browser extension for exporting cookies, such as [cookies.txt](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookies-txt/) for Firefox. As with any browser extension, be careful about what you install. (In particular, **beware of the `Get cookies.txt` extension for Chrome!** There are credible reports of it being malware.)
+You may also use a conforming browser extension for exporting cookies, such as [Get cookies.txt LOCALLY](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/get-cookiestxt-locally/cclelndahbckbenkjhflpdbgdldlbecc) for Chrome or [cookies.txt](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookies-txt/) for Firefox. As with any browser extension, be careful about what you install. If you had previously installed the "Get cookies.txt" (**not** "LOCALLY") Chrome extension, it's recommended to uninstall it immediately; it has been reported as malware and removed from the Chrome Web Store.
 
 Note that the cookies file must be in Mozilla/Netscape format and the first line of the cookies file must be either `# HTTP Cookie File` or `# Netscape HTTP Cookie File`. Make sure you have correct [newline format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline) in the cookies file and convert newlines if necessary to correspond with your OS, namely `CRLF` (`\r\n`) for Windows and `LF` (`\n`) for Unix and Unix-like systems (Linux, macOS, etc.). `HTTP Error 400: Bad Request` when using `--cookies` is a good sign of invalid newline format.
