(Account data and token are obviously different). There seems to be a problem with opening the code file? I can't quite track down the problem.

It looks like you are using an old version of MiUnlockTool !! Use the latest version 1.5.1

Ah, that's right. now the error is

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/karl/Downloads/MiUnlockTool.py", line 349, in <module>
with open(path, "wb") as edfile:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'encryptData'

• so, it's still the same

Just delete the old encryptData file
