If you do not have python3 installed, you can install it using your package manager, for example, in distributions based on Debian, it is installed like this:

sudo apt-get install python3

To install the module in the console, enter

sudo apt install python3-pyqt5

modules will be automatically downloaded and installed. The program starts like this:

python3 program_path/yt_dlp_gui.py

You can also add permission to run the script and double-click to run it, as well as create a desktop shortcut.
