Viewing post in Butler won't run on my PC

Sorry to bother once again. I can't seem to push my game onto itch.io.
I followed this simple how-to guide and I run into this error:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>butler push F:\Program Files\STARDROP.zip joure/stardrop:win-64
butler: error: unexpected joure/stardrop:win-64

I triple checked but these are my account names as well as the correct name of my game page/project. I authenticated my butler correctly as well and it's up to date. I really am at a loss why this error is occurring. Any help would e greatly appreciated.

Hey, can you try the following commands?

F:
cd "F:\Program Files"
butler push STARDROP.zip joure/stardop:win-64

Windows is weird about drives, so that might explain it.

Also: you don't need to zip up the game yourself, you can just push a folder (that's actually faster).

You sir are a legend. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I only had to fix the last command line (stardop:win-64 = stardrop:win-64)

but it works perfectly and the file is uploading right now !!!

Man, what a load off. Again thank you. :D

Good to hear!

Hi, I'm having the same problem on my Mac OS High Sierra. I initially downloaded it offline, and it came up as a text file. I then tried it from the Itch app, and it said it was successfully installed, but when I hit Launch, it loaded for a split second and then went back to launch. Any advice?

The itch app probably installed it correctly, but it's a command line tool, so it makes sense that it would exit immediately. You'll have to run it from a Terminal application, as the docs say.
