Describe the bug
When the "Download archive" setting is enabled and you remove a video (deleting the file as well) it doesn't remove it from the archive. This means that if I was trying to redownload a video because I specified the wrong resolution or something, it says "error: already downloaded" even though I deleted the video already.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Download a video
- Remove it and delete the file
- Try to download it again
- See error
Error reports
