Awesome work man. Congrats!

Edit: I may have found a very small issue. After you choose your region it asks to browse for folder, when you do that, if you want to cancel, it doesn't let you. It forces you to pick a folder. Also, a request to add zip or 7z support as alternatives to the rar archive.

Just used it and this is absolutely fantastic. I love this app. It's incredibly easy to use and it tells you when there is an update for the game you download. So good!!!
Hey thanks for your feedback. Actually you can use a zip archive. But you are gonna have to drop it on the box because I normally recommend people to use rar archives.
But zip should work fine too.

Thanks @Hikari06 for the public release. Installing it now. Could I make one small suggestion though? (I haven't used it yet). Could you please change the name of the setup file to something that makes it stand out what it is? At the moment it is called setup.exe. I will rename it manually for my files but if it was named something obvious to start with that would be better. Congrats on getting the data you needed during testing though.

Yeah sorry about that, thing is now that the link is out there I'm not sure I wanna mess around with the file names. Besides you are only supposed to use it once after that the app will show up in your start menu.

I thought that Wii U home brew couldn't get internet access... has that changed?

I think it's still the case, I'm not super knowledgeable about wii u dev though.

I've just got WIN10 default protection.

I've disabled real time protection, added the SETUP.EXE as an exception, and also disabled the default firewall.

then right clicked setup.exe and "ran as administrator"

same error. - not sure what to try next, this looks so good.

In that case please send me the log file mentioned in your previous post.

Alright yeah, now that I know how to use the downloads, this app is amazing. Makes downloading SUPER simple.

I have a few suggestions for the next version:
It would be really convenient if when you closed the app, it kept your download queue. Whenever you close it, you have to manually reselect what you want to download.

Maybe this is an issue on my end, buy my computer went into sleep mode and it stopped downloading.

This is not an issue per-se, putting the computer to sleep will indeed stop any download. (But the app should restart automatically)

Yes, this could have helped.
Anyway, I'm glad you managed to install it, I hope you'll enjoy using it :)
