Per discussion started on the WGSExtract.github.io board (https://github.com/WGSExtract/WGSExtract.github.io/discussions/9#discussioncomment-2901105), it appears that 8bit ASCII characters used in file paths will cause the software to not load as the Temporary Path (first use of a path in the code) fails. While a patch fix is possible, easiest work around is to simply remedy the path name to only include 7bit ASCII. It is not an issue in the WGS Extract version 4 code due out soon.
