   Sooo...I'm finally getting around to trying to install and run FediFetcher on my Windows PC.

   However, after installing dependencies and setting my configs, I get an error on first startup that says "ModuleNotFoundError:No module named xxhash"

   Even though it definitely installed xxhash....😬

   Any ideas? @michael @paul

     @michael @paul i tried and it just told me that xxhash was already installed in the python folder, which i assume is the correct path. Strange...

     @BeAware @paul

     Can you re-run pip install -r requirements.txt to see if that fixes it?

     @paul @michael I've actually figured out the issue and now i've run into another issue.

     For documentation purposes, the first error was caused by multiple python installations. I removed the other and now that error has gone away.

     Now, when i run:

     .\find_posts.py -c=.\artifacts\config.json

     I get usage: with a list of arguments

     Followed by

     find_posts.py: error: unrecognized arguments: .\artifacts\config.json

     @BeAware @michael

     Sorry, just saw this thread. When I get to the computer I'll take a peek around. I know I tried to upgrade pip earlier and ran into an issue, (nothing to do with fedifetcher). Was going to troubleshoot that later.

     You might try

     pip install --upgrade xxhash

     And see what happen.

     @paul @michael The command is written wrong for Windows. instead of:

     .\find_posts.py -c=.\artifacts\config.json

     it should be:

     .\find_posts.py -c .\artifacts\config.json

     A space instead of an =
