What operating system do you use ?
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
When you go to youtube-dlg's settings and select "update", it says "downloading latest youtube-dl. please wait...", but then after a few seconds it says "youtube-dl download failed [http error 403: forbidden]". This issue never used to happen before, and it always used to just download the update successfully and say "downloading latest youtube-dl. please wait...", and then after a few seconds say something like "youtube-dl downloaded successfully." without any issues. Nothing has changed with the program installation or settings. Is there a way to fix that? Thanks.
