Since the yt-dlp is not being packed with the application anymore, you'll need to download it manually. So, download the yt-dlp and place the yt-dlp.exe (if you're on Windows) inside a folder named open-video-downloader (That was created by the application). Mine was located where I ran the setup (C:/Users/MyUser/Downloads/open-video-downloader). After that, restart the application.

Same. I don't have a folder named open-video-downloader.

I also downloaded this version here from winget and it has some errors.

The one mentioned in the latest issue is working fine. https://github.com/StefanLobbenmeier/youtube-dl-gui

Followed your steps, restarted the app, still getting the same error message.

This version also adds ffmpeg, so try adding that dll too.
