Login Error 403 - Inability To Login To Itch App

I'm pretty much desperate at this point because I don't know why this is happening but I've been stuck trying to log in through the desktop app without success for weeks now. I thought it would be something that'll get fixed with time since I could get into the website and log in just fine without issues after the Cloudflare stuff got sorted out for me. Unfortunately, the problems persisted with the app itself not allowing me to log in and I don't know if it's a me issue or an Itch.io issue at large.

I wonder if anyone has encountered this sort of issue like me and whether or not they've managed to find a fix for it. I'm currently on Windows and this has never happened before until recently and for no reason. Below I'm attaching the exact error I keep receiving every time I try to log in, hoping that I can get access to the app again since it was more convenient for me than the browser version.

(Apologies if someone already asked this question/wondered about this, I went through pages just to look and check and couldn't find anything similar to mine, hence the topic being set up)

Me too!!!

I'm glad I'm not the only one here

I don't think that's it, but maybe your app isn't up to date?

No not really, I have gone to the folders since I can't log in to access the app's settings and checked the versions of each part and they've completely up to date as of the current Itch app build so it's not that.

"Itch" being 26.1.9, "Butler" being 15.24.0 and "Itch Setup" being 1.27.0

Me too! I have no idea why the rest of the internt seems to never have encountered this issue. I have tried reinstalling and clearing cache and everything and nothing works!

I've emailed itch.io support 3 weeks ago but they haven't even read my email yet :(
