You’re on the right path…

Instructions for: Windows 10, Shotcut version 18.11.18

1. Click the YouTube export preset
2. Click Export File
   A. Brings up a standard Windows dialog file save window, just choose location, name your file, click Save.
   

Upload your exported video file to YouTube. This is done though YouTube. Shotcut does not upload the file for you.

Try a file name like “Luzie.mp4”.
