Maybe it's just me being stupid. Please excuse my ignorance...

Your README says: "Simply call SpotlightDownloader.exe from the Windows command prompt" However, there isn't an exe in the download.

I have VSCode and .NET Core SDK and C# Extension. I have never worked in any of these, I am a complete novice. I simply don't know how to build the project. Can you offer some tips please?

See #1 seems like you're looking for the releases section.

Thank you. How I missed that I don't know. Still, any tips on how to build from source? I've tried dotnet build and got: Build succeeded. C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\3.1.301\NuGet.targets(128,5): warning : Unable to find a project to restore! [E:\GitHub Repositories\Spotlight-Downloader\SpotlightDownloader.sln] 1 Warning(s) then dotnet run Couldn't find a project to run. Ensure a project exists in E:\GitHub Repositories\Spotlight-Downloader, or pass the path to the project using --project.

Use msbuild with SpotlightDownloader.csproj or F6 in Visual Studio. For more info, see how to build from source from another project of mine.

Thank you for your help. I won't bother you further with noob questions. :)
