Youtube-dl stopped working- erorr signature extraction failed and no write persmission
I have Mint version on my computer and usually my friend would fix this but he decided to just "dump me" and not talk to me at all for weeks now. Anyways. This is what terminal says:
ERROR: Signature extraction failed: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/youtube-dl/youtube_dl/extractor/youtube.py", line 1226, in _decrypt_signature

So I've tried doing Youtub-dl -U to update what is asking for and it says this:
Updating to version 2019.03.09 ...
ERROR: no write permissions on /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
And I put my password in or something and ti still is doing this. So please any knowledgeable brave soul out there...help me. :)
