Possible BUG with "&" character in password. #12377

You need to enclose your password with single or double quotes. See https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl#video-url-contains-an-ampersand-and-im-getting-some-strange-output-1-2839-or-v-is-not-recognized-as-an-internal-or-external-command |
When the password contains the & character, the following error occurs:
"Youtube-dl: error: You must provide at least one URL."
youtube-dl -i -v --sleep-interval 60 --max-sleep-interval 100 -u PRIVATE -p PRIVATE -o "%(playlist)s/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s" --all-sub
s "https://app.pluralsight.com/library/courses/windows-server-2012-70-411-configure-network-services"
