"message file successfully extracted from cover file: null"

correct password, win10.

i see this was reported before, and im pretty sure i did a test extraction after i made the file originally.

Can you please provide more details? It would be good if you can give some test files.

I have since had to replace my computer and don't have access to the specifics of the situation any longer however the problem resolved itself.

I had embedded a non typed file with 4 lines of text into a png with what I believe was 0.7.3 however i cannot confirm that now. I just tried to extract it again after installing 0.7.3 on my new computer and it gave me a different error, that it was made with an old version. i was able to track it back to 0.6.1 by installing incrementally older versions and successfully extract the file which made my night.

Perhaps I originally had 0.6.1 and that is where the error was generated.

Regardless, thanks for the reply!
