Not only does the new Netflix app for Windows remove a crucial feature, it's basically no different than opening netflix.com in a browser.

Netflix for Windows has removed the ability to download videos. Luckily, there is a workaround you can use to bring back downloads.

A new update for the Netflix app on Windows 10 and 11 won't allow users to download movies or series via the Netflix app for offline viewing or when facing intermittent Internet connection issues.
