Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\py2exe\boot_common.py", line 92, in
ImportError: No module named linecache

I have tried:

set path=C:\Python;%PATH%

set path=C:\Python32;%PATH% (my python installed version is 3.2）

but it didn't work.

What are you trying to do in the first place? For windows binary you don't need python installed. Read bug reporting guide.

I had this same error. I had an old install of Python27 on my system (C:\p27) and copied the executable to the C:\p27\Lib folder. It ran fine from there. I had already tried adding that folder the path, etc, but it didn't seem to help. For some reason only moving the executable to the lib folder worked. Weird.

This can't be right, the youtube-dl.exe listed as the official download on the youtube-dl website is a self-contained / standalone binary. You can run this from anywhere..

Don't know what to tell you. It didn't work for several hours and I tried various things and this is what fixed it. Maybe the conversion to stand-alone didn't work properly this time. Who knows.
