  2. Paste the YouTube ID: Paste the copied YouTube ID into the input field on this page.
  3. Generate the Archive URL:
    • Press the Enter key, or
    • Click the "Generate URL" button next to the input field.
  4. Redirection: You will be redirected to: web.archive.org/web/2oe_/http://wayback-fakeurl.archive.org/yt/[YouTube ID]. The YouTube ID you entered will be appended to the URL.

Note: Not all YouTube videos are available on the Wayback Machine. Some videos may not have been archived or may not be accessible.
