Describe the bug
When removing a download in progress the yt-dlp process does not get killed correctly. Which means the video will continue downloading.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Start a video download
  2. Remove the download while it is in progress
  3. Watch the file still get bigger

Expected behavior
When a video gets removed the entire yt-dlp process should get stopped.

Additional info:

  • Version: 2.4.0 with the switch to yt-dlp.
  • OS: Windows 10, not sure if this happens on other OS'es.
