• Choose between video and audio download options.
• List downloaded files in a scrollable list.
• Open the download folder by double-clicking on the listed file.
• Progress bar and status updates during the download process.

3. Install the required Python packages:

To convert this Python application to a standalone .exe file for Windows, you can use PyInstaller.

1. Install PyInstaller:

   pip install pyinstaller

2. Navigate to the project directory and run the following command:

   pyinstaller --onefile --windowed main.py

   • --onefile: Packages everything into a single .exe file.
   • --windowed: Hides the command line console, showing only the GUI.

3. The generated .exe file will be located in the dist folder.

4. You can now use this .exe file on other Windows computers.
