Belkasoft Facebook Profile Saver: Complete Guide and Download Options
Overview
Belkasoft Facebook Profile Saver is a lightweight, free tool from Belkasoft designed to capture publicly available content from Facebook profiles for offline review and forensic use. It automates saving public photo albums (with comments and descriptions) and wall posts (text and images), generating a self-contained HTML report suitable for offline analysis or evidence presentation.
Key features
- Saves public photo albums including comments and descriptions.
- Captures wall posts (text and images; videos not supported).
- Produces a self-contained HTML report with original links preserved.
- Can sign in with credentials if a page requires a logged-in view (only when needed).
- Free to download and intended for forensic, security, or archival purposes.
Typical use cases
- Forensic investigations and evidence preservation.
- Offline archival of public profile content for review.
- Quick automated snapshots of public Facebook pages for reporting.
Limitations and considerations
- Only public content is captured unless you provide valid credentials to access restricted pages.
- Videos and some dynamic content may not be saved.
- Using third-party tools to access content behind authentication carries legal and ethical obligations—ensure you have the right to collect and store the data.
- Facebook’s UI and API behaviors change over time; functionality may vary with site updates.
System requirements
- Windows OS (tool historically distributed as a Windows application).
- Internet connection for accessing Facebook pages and optional sign-in.
- Sufficient disk space to store downloaded media and generated reports.
How to download and install
- Visit Belkasoft’s website (belkasoft.com) or Belkasoft’s forensic tools pages/news entries for the Facebook Profile Saver download link.
- Locate the Facebook Profile Saver / Social Profile Saver entry (the Facebook-specific free tool is often listed under Belkasoft’s free utilities or older news posts).
- Download the installer or archive and run the installer on a Windows machine.
- Follow on-screen prompts to install. If an installer is not available, download the portable package and extract to a folder, then run the executable.
Quick usage steps
- Launch Belkasoft Facebook Profile Saver.
- Enter the URL of the Facebook profile or album you want to save.
- If the page is restricted, supply valid Facebook credentials when prompted (use only credentials you are authorized to use).
- Start the capture; monitor progress and wait for the HTML report to be generated.
- Open the generated report locally to review saved posts, images, and comments.
Alternatives
- Manual saving via browser (Save Page As / right-click images) — slow for large or multiple profiles.
- Other specialized forensic tools (Belkasoft Evidence Center / Belkasoft X) — enterprise-grade, paid and broader capabilities.
- Web archiving services or browser extensions (vary in features and legal/ethical implications).

Quick checklist before use
- Authorization: Confirm you have legal right to capture the target content.
- Credentials: Use only authorized Facebook accounts if required.
- Storage: Ensure secure storage for downloaded data; treat reports as potentially sensitive.
