YouTube under Windows XP - Downloaders, players and browser support

[AstroSkipper]

A night's sleep always brings new ideas to light.  The 7-Zip commands for extracting can be simplified to remain completely relative in the path information such as I already did in the whole ytBATCH for Windows XP script ensemble. I will implement this in the next release. Sometimes, things are that simple.

• ytBATCH for Windows XP 1.5 - A fork of ytBatch by @AstroSkipper which is a YouTube video and audio downloader script (actually rather a batch script ensemble).

And these are by no means all the YouTube Downloaders that still work under Windows XP.  So, there is no need to watch YouTube videos inside browsers under Windows XP on weak computers, although this is of course possible, too.

Thanks for the corrections, it's a pleasure.
In the quote, you can see that version 1.5 is announced instead of version 1.6.
I'll try your modifications to see how it works now.
I use FAT32 as the system directory, without special permissions in drive D:\
I don't have any operating system on C:. I use that partition for system startup files and also as a shared program installation drive (it's not assigned as the system's default path). Since I have multiple operating systems, most programs are portable, so I don't have to install them on all of my operating systems.
Also, many viruses attack C: directly, so I avoid them. Additionally, many programs store junk in C:, and this way I detect it quickly.
In the case of ytBATCH, I followed the standard installation "D:\Archivos de programa" (the default path in Spanish for Program Files).
So far I have not encountered any program that caused problems because it had D:\ as the drive.

Thanks for replying! This is just a leftover and has now been edited by me. But the other announcements are correct and point to the most recent version.
