Send me the log.txt file
Of course, it'd be this:

(WiiUDownloader.exe:9912): Gtk-WARNING **: 10:29:24.392: Could not load a pixbuf from /org/gtk/libgtk/theme/Adwaita/assets/bullet-symbolic.svg.
This may indicate that pixbuf loaders or the mime database could not be found.

(WiiUDownloader.exe:9912): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 10:29:26.168: win32 session dbus binary not found
Error: The file "C:\Documents\Wii U\titles/Mario Kart DS [Game] [0005000010195700]/title.tmd" couldn't be opened. Will exit now.

I'm not that used to this program, ever since FunkiiU doesn't work for me anymore, won't accept any keysite link at all.

Try downloading the game to the desktop, it might be a permissions issue

DLC is not working for me on any games, yet updates are being successfully applied (I assume so anyway as Mario Kart 8 is v4.1)

My WII U is running Tiramisu (using the release in the link shared by Pence PC in the description to his YouTube guide) and I'm using WiiUDownloader v.1.22 to get games, updates and DLC (I only have a Mac so can't use USB Helper), then using WUP Installer GX2 to install everything.

All files are being added to the USB drive, and I'm installing games, updates, then DLC, in that order.

Using the console's data management, I can see the DLC files are in the correct game folders.

Does anyone have any idea how I can solve this issue?

I have seen some comments saying to use NUSspli instead of WiiUDownloader, but when I try to install it I get an error message saying tiramisu is not up to date. The NUSspli YouTube guide I followed said that if this happens I just need to replace the tiramisu files on the SD card with updated versions (I assume this means the Pence PC version is an old release), but when I did this tiramisu failed to boot, so I reverted to the version I was using before. So, I suppose solving this issue could be an alternative solution to get DLCs working. Or could running a virtual windows on my Mac and using USB Helper be another potential workaround? 🤔

Update your tiramisu install by downloading and replacing the files from tiramisu.foryour.cafe, delete the installed dlc with NUSspli (important as NUSspli will delete the bad ticket too) and try installing it again

Hello. Tried v1.24 yesterday and v1.25 today. Getting Wind Waker US version. It's always stuck at decrypting. Tried both keeping encrypted and deleting encrypted contents.

UPDATE: Used V1.23 and everything is working perfectly for me.

Thanks for your feedback, will revert the changes I made to those versions

just wanted to say , amazing application, i have been using it for the past 3 days to backup everything i want because i heard servers will shutdown on the 27th but who knows.

Only few concerns i saw was lets suppose you leave it downloading and you go to sleep, the app sometimes stops asking you that the vc title will not work on CEMU, just to find out in the morning that it stopped, so thats kind of bad, because i didn´t want it to stop, im not always looking at the screen.

the other thing i would love to see is a the list of titles separated for example, this title is NES VC, this title is SNES VC, this title is DS VC, etc. filtering those as you filter USA; EUROPE AND JAP. I can find the list on wikipedia i think , so no big deal, but it would be nice to filter VC and VC+wiiU and wiiU games.

but the app is amazing.
