  • I've read bugs section in FAQ

Verbose log

I can't generate this

Description

Python 3.8.5
Downloaded youtube-dl 2020.09.20 to C:\YouTubeDL
Added C:\YouTubeDL to PATH
Installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86)
Rebooted laptop

I can't get it to work.
Every time I try to cal youtube-dl (for example youtube-dl --version), I get a windows error

The application was unable to start correctly 0xc00007b

I think this has to do with dependencies, but I've got both Python and Microsoft Visual C++ installed

Fixed it: Cause was Windows Smart Screen. (double clicking the .exe file finally gave a blue popup. Disabled Windows Smart Screen and everything is finally running)

weird. when i tried to run it on computer, it opened and closed immediately. I tried opening it in visual studio and it was gibberish and the only whole words was "cannot be run in DOS mode" everything else was rando characters
