Question: Downloads always fail Environment: Windows11 Version: YTDownloader 3.14.2

aandrew-me commented 1 year ago

Interesting. Can you tell me your username on Windows?

Ok so that popup never stops??

aandrew-me commented 1 year ago

Could it be related to internet connection?

One way you can solve this is by manually downloading yt-dlp from this link https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/download/2023.07.06/yt-dlp.exe

Then go to C:\Users\shs\ You can go there by pressing Win + R and typing %USERPROFILE% Once you go there, create a folder called .ytDownloader and put that exe there and rename it to ytdlp.exe

I moved ytdlp.exe to the installation directory and sovled this question. image But I think it's unfriendly that there is no progress bar when downloading. process Thank you for your active answer.
