This error is caused by the system not being able to run the program "ytmusicapi oauth". Perhaps ytmusicapi is not correctly installed?

Try exiting your terminal and restarting, perhaps it didn't pick up the path to ytmusicapi? Since OP is running the gui with "python -m", it might be worth trying "python -m pip install ytmusicapi" as well, to make sure it isn't another python environment that has ytmusicapi installed. You can also try running "python -c 'import ytmusicapi'" to make sure that Python is able to import the module. Ultimately, what you need to do is be able to run "ytmusicapi oauth", which I'm assuming is failing, but please check that.

If "ytmusicapi oauth" succeeds, you should then be able to run the GUI because it will detect the oauth.json file exists and will skip running the part of the code that is failing above.

I've also put in some error handling for this exception above, so that it prints a nicer message about the failure.

I solved it for myself. After typing "ytmusicapi oauth", I finish logging into my ytmusic account. Then I press enter and wait 1-2 minutes. The oauth.json file is created and problem solved. The reason why it gave me an error was because I did ctrl-c without waiting 1-2 minutes after pressing enter. There is no needed for ctrl-c.

Glad you were able to get past that issue, thanks for the report.
