I can't understand this issue.
when I download some videos, and everything is OK, a few minutes later my drive gets full to 0 bytes free, despite the fact that the youtube-dl's cmd was shut down already.
this folder cant be deleted until restart of the machine.

it happened to me a few times and it is really annoying.
if you can fix it that can be very thoughtful.

regards,
Liron.

Thank you for the report, that does indeed look like a very serious bug. Can you post the output of the command dir /S in that directory? (If it's too large to be posted, you can upload the file dir.txt you get after running dir /S > dir.txt too gist. That might give us a clue of what's happening here.

I'm sorry but I did restart and deleted it.
I can run it again and it will happen for sure.
but this time besides the dir.txt that you want tell me what else can I check for you,
so that we'll do all at once.
I can't stay with no free space on my machine as I have to use it for other things as well....

also important thing that might help:
I used 3 parallel instances of cmd to download those videos....
