Unable to download images

If you try to start a download and it completes without downloading any images, or it shows an error message, there is likely a problem with the support module for that particular website. Listed below are some common situations that can prevent the support modules from functioning correctly.

Make sure that the required libraries (.DLLs) are present

Some support modules require functionality provided by external library files (.DLLs). For example, MoonSharp.Interpreter.dll is required for Lua modules to function. These libraries are present in the lib folder inside of your HDoujin Downloader folder.

If you don't see this folder, download the latest .ZIP archive from the Releases page and extract it to a new folder. It's important to download the .ZIP archive instead of the standalone executable (.EXE) so that all program components are available.

Make sure that you are connected to the Official Lua Repository

The "Official Lua Repository" is an online repository that HDoujin Downloader synchronizes with to keep its support modules up to date. If you are not connected to the repository, it will not be able to download the latest updates.

You can follow the instructions here to ensure that you are connected to the repository.
