It downloads yt-dlp, its could be failing because app cant access the internet. Did you block its access to internet?
No, I can connect to the network. I didn't do any extra actions from installing it
Did Windows firewall show any pop-up?
No, can I manually download yt-dlp to fix it, and if so, what should I do?
Yes you can
Download this - https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/download/2023.11.16/yt-dlp.exe
Rename it to ytdlp.exe
Press Win + R to open the Run dialog box.
Type %HOMEPATH%
and press Enter. This will open your home directory.
There will likely be a folder called .ytDownloader
, if not create one. Then put that ytdlp.exe file in it
Okay, thank you
Is it working now?
No, I found that .ytDownloader already has ytdlp.exe
I just tried running winget install yt-dlp
in powershell and it still doesn't solve the problem.
Did you install ytDownloader from winget?
No, I installed it via YTDownloader_Win.exe.
After you open the app, press Ctrl + Shift + I and it will open dev tools Take a screenshot and send
Open the 2nd tab, (in English its written Console) and take a screenshot
Paste this there and press enter, see what you get
cp.execSync(ytdlpDownloadPath)
I just restarted my computer and it seemed to work while I was waiting
I'm extremely grateful.
Well, glad to hear!
I will keep the 'restarting the computer' thing in mind next time
Have a nice day/night!
Appreciate it! Have a nice day/night too!
