“acts weird” is not enough to really understand what’s happening. Can you post your command line and it’s output?

Yeah, sorry I was kinda vague there. (Before I forget, the "$ butler -V" command shows the same error.)

In *nix-speak, the dollar means that the command isn’t run in “administrator mode”. You’re not meant to literally type it in.

Oh wow, I'm dumb. Thank you, I'll give that a try...nope, same result.

I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. I'm going to try deleting and redownloading the program, that usually fixes this stuff.

EDIT: So I'm going to try downloading the itch.io app and redownloading butler from there.

It didn't work. Same crap is happening. I'm probably going try looking into contacting the developer at some point.

That just means that butler’s directory isn’t in your PATH environment variable, not the developer’s fault.

Sorry if I implied it was the dev's fault, that's not at all what I meant. What I meant was that the dev might know how to fix the issue, but I think I'm gonna just leave it be for now.

You need to add the directory that “butler.exe” is in to the PATH environment variable, and that should fix the issue.

I don’t know if Butler has a Windows-specific installer or if it has an option to automate that.
