After installing v0.2.0, the --version command still returns v.0.1.0 #346

I'm using the Streamlink Twitch GUI, whose developers recently decided to implement a version check, requiring the newest version of Streamlink, v0.2.0, to be installed. I therefore downloaded that version (Windows 10 user, so streamlink-0.2.0.exe) and installed it. Afterwards, the Streamlink Twitch GUI threw the same error, claiming the version was still v.0.1.0.

I checked myself to be sure:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Streamlink\bin>streamlink.exe --version
streamlink-script.py 0.1.0

Now I'm kinda at a loss here... . Whats wrong?

Did you try removing and reinstalling streamlink? There also was a problem with a previous version of the 0.2.0-installer causing the package still reporting version 0.1.0 (see #310).

I downloaded the installer again and tried removing and reinstalling as well as removing, restarting and reinstalling, but it didn't help.

I just tried it myself and it works as expected (returning 0.2.0). If you enter where streamlink into cmd what is the result?

It returns
C:\>where streamlink
C:\Program Files (x86)\Streamlink\bin\streamlink.exe

That looks correct to me.

As it works for me I'm still guessing that the old version was not correctly removed when uninstalling. Did you make sure that no files remain in C:\Program Files (x86)\Streamlink after you uninstalled it?

I did, the whole folder was gone after removing Streamlink. Maybe I'll just try a different folder once I get home from work, just to be sure.
Edit: Didn't help.

Can you try the nightly build from here: https://streamlink.github.io/install.html#windows-binaries

Works like a charm! Thank you all!

Awesome glad to hear it! I'm going to close this for now. We'll try to get a new release out which should hopefully address the versioning issue. We had to re-release 0.2.0 and it seems like it has caused a few oddities.
