Hi, @fastmarketo,

It seems that the problem comes from chrome, for some reason can not access the hard drive. I do not have this problem and it's hard to fix something I can not reproduce.

Check whether the chrome is working and also the chrome driver itself.

You haven't also started the new version of the program which is 0.16, from what I see you are running the older version which is 0.14 and if this version worked before, look for recent changes you made to the OS.

I am on a new machine as I am traveling. Are we supposed to install some Python etc on Windows desktop? What are the checklist for the successful running of this script?

r00tmebaby commented 4 years ago

The latest version is executable only and nothing is needed to run it under Windows.

For the old version 0.14, if you want to run the script only through the console, you need to install fresh Python 3.7+ and then the following libraries:

pip install selenium pip install colorama pip install tqdm pip install pysimplegui

You run it through the console by navigating to the source path and typing -> python gui.py or just gui.py

Keep in mind that the program does not have a buffer which means if the connection cut out (since you are travelling it may happen) it's very likely the program to stop immediately.

0.16 version that I downloaded doesn't have GUI and LOADER. image

Yes, v0.16 is executable only and everything is built in it. Python code is not provided.

If you read carefully in my previous post I mentioned version 0.14, not 0.16

fastmarketo commented 4 years ago

Please forgive me for re-opening this thread. Everything is executable that's ok, but if we use that version than where should we put Username/Password, download Links and path where the files are to be saved.

Sir, Can you please reply on this post. Thanks.
