Error: Specified native messaging host not found.

I installed the native host, console said it was successful. Restarted chrome, but it's still not working.

Did you remove the directory that held the native host installation files? Did you move the directory?

No, i just downloaded, extracted and ran Install.bat

Install install.bat as administrator and see if that helps. If not, this isn't much to go off of. I'll look into it, but with so little information I'll probably get nowhere.

Alright, so I realised that mpv and youtube-dl actually weren't in my path. I ran install.bat as administrator again, but still no luck. Actually now the error is showing up as undefined in the console in chrome.

I also checked the registry and it looks like the json file got registered correctly.

Could it be that a space in the path where I put mpv, youtube-dl and the native-host, causes problems?
