Note that data associated with the original upload, such as views or comments, won’t be attached to the new upload.
All of the options below to manage this change also apply to playlists:
Note: Some older Unlisted playlists were also created in the old system. In 2017, we rolled out an update to the system that generates new YouTube Unlisted links, which included security enhancements that make the links for your Unlisted videos even harder for someone to discover if you haven’t shared the link with them. Unlisted videos won’t appear to others who visit the "Videos" tab of your channel page and shouldn't show up in YouTube's search results unless someone adds an Unlisted video to a Public playlist. Unlisted content uploaded on or after Januwas unaffected by this change.Īs a reminder, Unlisted videos and playlists can be seen and shared by anyone with the link. This was part of a security update to Unlisted videos uploaded before January 1, 2017.
Of course it could be this virus that's causing the installation to fail but I'm not sure how to get rid of it, since I'm not able to install Avast.Starting July 23, 2021, older Unlisted videos were made Private unless you opted out from this change. Am I missing something or is there a command-line option with which I could disable updates? I'm sure the computer itself is infected with something, since flash drives that I plug in get infected with a 20MB file which Avast on another computer recognizes as Win32:Trojan-gen, i.e.
It seems that although this is the offline installer, it's trying to download updates from a server, which it obviously can't access, and that makes the installation fail. I launched the installer but just after 10 seconds or so, the installation program terminated with an error, see the log attached. The machine already had an old version of Avast (, VPS 150728-0) previously installed but since it didn't seem to be catching viruses on flash drives anymore, I figured it's time to update.
I just downloaded the Avast Free Antivirus offline installer yesterday to use on a desktop machine running 32-bit Windows XP with no Internet.
