How do I set this up? #9

Hello,

I want to set this up to sync and export my KOReader highlights to my computer, but I don't know how to set this up. I downloaded the KoHighlights-1.3.0.0 zip file with all the Python files. Not sure what I'm supposed to click on or do now.

If you are in Windows, get the KoHighlights.v1.3.0.0.setup.exe and just install the program. If you're in Linux, use the Linux binary..

I've used the KoHighlights.v1.3.0.0.setup.exe, and kept getting this message:

Even when I clicked "yes" and installed Visual C++ 2008, I would try to run the .exe again and would get the exact same message.

You have to download and install the 32bit version (x86)

Where is the 32-bit version? The download page only shows one .exe file, and that's the one I downloaded that gave the Visual C++ error:

The 32bit version of Visual C++ 2008

Ahh, I see. It works now! Thank you so much for your help @noembryo ! I've been exploring this app for a few minutes and it's exactly what I needed.

For future reference, in case someone else has the same issue with the .exe, this is the link to the Visual C++ download that solved the issue for me.
