Hi,

I just tried running the project on my local Windows machine, but I didn't get any import errors. I am running with Python 3.12.

Please make sure to use a virtual environment. It seems as if you have some broken packages, because as soon as you install urllib3 it should automatically install all of its dependencies.

1. Go into your terminal again and type: py -m venv venv
2. Activate the virtual environment: venv\Scripts\activate
3. Install the packages once again with pip install -r requirements.txt
4. Run the project with py main.py

If it gives you any issues please try reinstalling Python first. If you still can't find a solution we can go a bit deeper into it.

Note

You don't need to use Porn Fetch from the source code. You can also just install it from the Releases and download the already compiled .exe file for Windows.

I would also not recommend you to run Porn Fetch from source anyways because sometimes I make commits which break things unexpectedly, so master branch is VERY unstable.

You are a STAR. I am now able to run the program and use the GUI. Thank you for your response on the venv. It was a new learning for me. Much Appreciated
