Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentException: Illegal characters in path. #1

This happens when the output folder is specified with a \ at the end.

Here's the error message:

P.S. That's a really cool library you got here :)

Sorry for my late reply, had a lot of work todo the past months... First of all thanks for using this little program. I discovered the same error in a previous version of the decryptor and tried to replace all illegal chars on the path variable. The main problem was, using the sqlite mode, there a lot of characters in the title which weren't replaced by System.IO.Path.GetInvalidPathChars() or even System.IO.Path.GetInvalidFileNameChars.

I think you'll have to replace those special characters on your own in file Program.cs on line 47 or 49 and recompile the decryptor. This will fix the error (just a workaround).
