Need help w/ Butler

Hello.

I am trying to upload both of my current games on to Itch, but both require Butler to do so. I have downloaded said Butler, but it closes each time I launch it. I am but a humble peddler of wares trying to figure this out. Any help would be most appreciated.

Hey there,

butler is a command-line application, so you'll need to run it from the command line. The official guide explains everything in (hopefully) easy steps: https://itch.io/docs/butler/in...

Try following it page by page, and if you still have issues feel free to post your questions here!

Installed it into my paths (E:\BRYY\Work). Command Prompt tells me that it cannot find it, even when I do butler which. I am running windows 10.

Quoting the guide:

On Windows, follow this article to add the folder where you downloaded butler.exe to your path.

From cmd.exe, you can check that you got it right by typing "echo %PATH%" (without the quotes) then pressing enter. The result should contain "E:\BRYY\Work".

Alternatively, you can do "cd E:\BRYY\Work" and run "butler" directly from there. (If cmd.exe doesn't start in "E:", you may have to type "E:" then press enter to switch drives.)
