OSError: [WinError 87] Paramètre incorrect when i try to add a youtube video

Hi, On Windows 10, I got this error when I try to add a youtube video :

\yt_dlp\utils.py", line 886, in init ... AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\subprocess.py", line 1155, in _execute_child startupinfo) OSError: [WinError 87] Paramètre incorrect

Not sure why this is happening and don't have a Windows10 system to test it.

You can try replacing the line from yt_dlp import YoutubeDL with import youtube_dl as YoutubeDL and installing pip install youtube_dl before hand. It's slower than the lib i used but might work for you.

Or you could investigate https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp and if you find out what's wrong, give me a hint!

Let me know!
