Describe the bug This utility stopped working a couple months ago. Wrath classic. I've updated to latest version today 12/13/2022. This is what I get when running the windows.bat

Name Prev. Version New Version ──── ───────────── ─────────── Press any key to continue . . .

If you run pipenv update on the command line and try again, does the issue go away? No. Same result.

This is curse blocking your requests. There's nothing we can reliably do to fix this, sorry.

finkbyter commented 1 year ago

I see, thank you for the reply!

Yeah it seems to work sometimes (like right now) and other times not. Must be that anti-bot thing you have mentioned earlier?

Curse uses a service called CloudFlare in front before you get to talk to them, and sometimes cloudflare decides you are not worthy (or look like a bot). But I have no clue why it decides to break users of this tool, because it seems to work for long periods of time with no changes, and then suddenly stop working ... then it works again if we simply wait (usually)... 🫤

A user @omicron-o submitted a recent change that enables use of GitHub releases as an addon source. If you are able, I would try to switch as many addons over to a GitHub source or possibly another host.
