              @randyslim76 ok, but that narrows down the problem. Are you sure you can‘t scrape at all? Not detecting the languange shouldn‘t be a problem for the scraping itself as english is chosen then.

                @paradadf Yes I'm sure. It does exactly what it did before. Still has the registry error and cannot detect language. Wish there was a way to ask these other two gentlemen that figured out the issue to help with the issue. Thank you so very much for trying to figure out the issue.

                  @randyslim76 execute this batch and copy paste here the generated output.txt please:
                  http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=79263591375427261106

                  The batch contains only:

                  @echo off
                  >output.txt (
                  	reg Query "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop
                  )
                  

                  It is very weird that the registry isn¨t found on your computer and that will shed some light.

                              @randyslim76 that cannot be. You must have copied the code somehow incorrectly. Please downlod the file and run it.

                                      @randyslim76 ok, now I see the registry key for OS language doesn‘t exist in your pc (no idea why, or it isn‘t where it should be). For my understanding, you don‘t have an usual windows installation. Anyway, I‘ll update fastscraper soon to address this case and let you know.

                                        @randyslim76 please try the latest version. In your case, set en here:
                                        https://github.com/paradadf/recaltools/blob/master/fastscraper/fastscraper.bat#L11
                                        so you don´t get the that error anymore. The rest should work, hopefully!

                                          @paradadf I will completely understand if you want to quit, but it still gives the registry error. My friend took a look at it and changed something with the internet settings. He thought it wasn't able to send a verification. So I tried his version (which looks very similar to yours. I went through the entire code and only a few things looked different. I didn't receive any errors on his and it looked as if it was going to download everything. It finished with no errors except it didn't make a gamelist.xml or create any folders nor pictures.

                                          Just to describe how it looks, I have the filescraper.bat and scraper.exe side by side in a empty folder next to a folder with 5 gba games. The folder the roms are in is just labeled New Folder. The gba roms are in zip form. During the tests I turned my antivirus off and even turned off my firewall too. Tried it both ways.

                                          Here is his fastscraper

                                            @randyslim76 can you please show me what happens when you run the latest version of fastscraper.bat?
                                            If a registry can’t be accessed and assuming you ser the lang to en, the error must come somewhere after. One think though, your rom folders can’t have a space in the name (New Folder doesn’t work, but New_Folder does).
                                            And about the commenting out of the code your friend did, it shouldn’t affect the scrapping itself if you have all files in place.
                                            Are you on a normal windows installation? Don’t you have another pc to try it out?
