It looks like its not allowed to access the database file. Try running it in administrator mode and see if it works. Depending on where you stored the tool this issue might appear. Where is it located exactly?

Also please check if there is a folder called db where the app is and if there is a file in it called e621.db

It's located on the desktop and yep there's a file called like that with a size of 1kb

did you try to run it as admin?

Edit: I have tried the provided tag and it worked on my end. There is definitely an issue with read and write on your end. Maybe try to run it in your downloads folder if admin worked.

Running it on desktop as an admin in its dedicated folder didn't work, but moving the folder inside downloads worked without admin.

glad to hear you got it working. it somehow got blocked in the process then. I will add an additional safety net in the next update that informs the user if read & write permission is missing. If you consider this issue resolved please close it.
