Question

Hi, so I have looked everywhere about how I can update, and so when I tried to do youtube-dl -U I ended up with the following message: It looks like you installed youtube-dl with a package manager, pip, setup.py or a tarball. Please use that to update. But my issue is that I installed using the EXE (since I am on windows). And I can't find the place where it is installed to delete it and start fresh, nor have I been able to update it with a new EXE. I also don't know which package manager to use as installed it using EXE.

As clearly stated in the message you installed it via pip thus use that.
