Caution

Unfortunately I seem to have made a mistake while updating MKVToolNix. The files, that are supposed to be in \Apps\Support\MKVToolNix were extracted to \Apps\Support\MKVToolNix\mkvtoolnix. Unfortunately my own instance recognizes the new location and accepts it without throwing an error message. :PatStare:
To prevent (or solve) related issues, please go to .\Apps\Support\MKVToolNix\mkvtoolnix and move its content into the folder above: .\Apps\Support\MKVToolNix.

Caution

StaxRip-v2.52.4-x64.7z
