I have recently Installed windows 8.1 pro on my laptop (after formatting hard drive) but Youtube-DL GUI isn't working. (before formatting hard drive, Youtube-DL GUI worked fine)
FIRST ISSUE. When trying to update it immediately gives me the error "Youtube-dl download failed [<urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed [(_ssl.c:661)>]".]
I've already tried adding "--no-check-certificate" in Options>Extra with no success.
SECOND ISSUE. I've installed the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable and I'm running youtube-dl-gui.exe as admin. Once I enter the url(s) they get queued but nothing after that happens. When I close Youtube-DL GUI, I receive this message
The logfile (youtube-dl-gui.exe.log) produces such a message:
Exception in thread Thread-2:
Traceback (most recent call last):

EDIT: I did it manually and now works.
