FFmpeg is a free, open source, command line application that converts files to other formats locally on your machine. Don't be the guy using sketchy middle man methods, follow this tutorial and ill get you set up.

Most third party "File Converter" websites/applications use FFMpeg as its base. Using FFmpeg directly can avoid the middle man and keep your computer safe. Please leave any concerns or problems in the comments.

Downloading and Extracting FFmpeg
   
    Google's top result is usually the most accurate version of FFmpeg however I will keep the official link in the description, and updated as much as possible. We are just looking for something like "FFmpeg--release-essentials.zip"

Now will need to properly store youtube-dl in our files

    Navigate to LocalDisk C: → ProgramFiles
    Create a folder here
    Move FFmpeg, FFplay, FFprobe  into that folder.

Now we will want FFmpeg to always run on our command prompt, to set that we will create a new User Variable, Path:

     Go to Control Panel → System and Security → System → Advanced System Settings →   Environment Variables.
    Press the top "New..." button. Set "Path" as the variable name and for the variable value we will want to put the location of the folder we made.

It is easiest to use FFmpeg on your desktop. We can automatically open our command prompt with the following settings:

    Press Windows → Type CMD → Right Click → Open File Location → Command Prompt → Right Click → Properties → Change "Start In" to your Desktop

Actually using FFmpeg:

    Make sure the file you want to change is on your Desktop
    Open cmd
    Type "ffmpeg" → -i → Name of file → space → Name of file + New Extension
    Your new file will be on your desktop
