While trying to download any video it shows an error message like this. This message was displayed "Please restart the app and disable antivirus". I even tried after disabling antivirus but the issue is not resolved.

I had same problem when I used the portable version. You must download this binary and put it to the "open-video-downloader" folder. https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp.exe

I added that exe to the folder and the error remains.. do we need to do anything with it prior?

Download the portable version from https://github.com/jely2002/youtube-dl-gui/releases and once you open it, it'll create a folder called open-video-downloader, copy yt-dlp there
