Did another pass and it's still saying the same CDM message. It also only seems to be scanning new messages (the command prompt interface says I should add "--after 2000 --dupe" to the prompt, but I'm not sure how to do that when i'm selecting from a menu
so you generated your own keys from the phone emulator and placed them in the correct location? Also to reset the dupes i believe you can go to C:\Users\Admin\.config\ofscraper\main_profile\.data and find the user and delete their folder
I had done one of the automatic update options the link suggested rather than install the android emulator, but as that apparently didn't work, I've been working on this frankly insane manual install. (Sorry, but installing something so the thing I installed to make something else works so I can modify a configuration so I can run the thing I installed twenty steps ago starts to burn me out after an hour or two.)
I'm on the step of "using python to get the dump-keys from dumper main" I'm following on the manual install path of CDM options - OF-Scraper
and I just got:
TypeError: Descriptors cannot not be created directly.
If this call came from a _pb2.py file, your generated code is out of date and must be regenerated with protoc >= 3.19.0.
If you cannot immediately regenerate your protos, some other possible workarounds are:
1. Downgrade the protobuf package to 3.20.x or lower.
2. Set PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python (but this will use pure-Python parsing and will be much slower).
I have to say, if it ends up I need to reinstall everything again from scratch, I'm just going to find a screencap program to run. Seriously, folks it's not that good of a video.
Okay, I ended up giving up on the manual method and re-trying all the automatic methods and the last one worked. I'll upload the video in a minutes. thanks h fcrtctr
