How to save Instagram photos on your PC or Laptop

Instagram is an online mobile photo & video sharing service which allows you to backup photos & videos. It also allows you to snap a photo, crop the photo, apply effects and digital filters to the photo. You can share Instagram photos to Facebook, Tumblr and Twitter at the same time when uploading photo to Instagram. Instagram has a 'Explore Tab', where you will see photos & videos specifically suggested for each user. Initially, the 'Explore Tab' displayed photos & videos which were popular among all Instagram users. If you like the other people's photos on Instagram and you want to save those photos to your PC or laptop then follow the steps below to save other people's Instagram photos to your lappy or PC.

Step 1:- Go to http://instagram.com/ & sign in to your account. If you don't have an account, then create one.

Step 2: Open the image or photo which you want to download


Step 3:  Right click on image and select  inspect element 



Step 4: Once you will click on Inspect element one dialog box will popup below your image .



Step 5: Don't worry by looking such code and numbers 

Now your work is to just move your mouse courser inside this code. Once you will get image like this just right click on that URL 

If you didn't get my point then just follow this image below:-  


Point 1: Move your mouse coursor you will get image popup .
Point 2: That is the image which you want to download once the image pop-up which confirms that the point where your mouse courser is . That is the path to download the image
