Just discovered the upload for GOGPlus Download Checker v2.2 was missing from the GitHub page, no idea why ... perhaps I got interrupted during an edit.

This is a minor update, that has better support for PDF files using PDFcpu (pdfcpu.exe), which can be downloaded from the following GitHub link.

PLEASE NOTE
For those of you who like me, use this checker for Itch.io game downloads, you might also be interested in a new program of mine, Bundle Compare, which helps with comparing the content of the various bundles, and keeping tab on what you've downloaded etc.

Releases - https://github.com/Twombs/GOGRepo-GUI/releases

Information - https://github.com/Twombs/GOGRepo-GUI/tree/master/Simple_GUI

Latest release with improvements and a specific bugfix for a more recent gogrepoc.py fork by Kalanyr.

NOTE - To use gogrepoc.py with my GUI, it must be renamed to gogrepo.py. I have included it in the zip file download with the patch by mrkgnao implemented.

There are discussions about the above starting at the following.

FYI - While I have not done a release for v1.6, and probably don't recommend using it, especially now, it has been available from the following. It was an experiment, that appears to have worked.

Basically I have compiled a version of gogrepo.py into an executable (gogrepo.exe), which probably means you don't need to have Python and extra Python libraries installed. I haven't been able to test on a Python free PC yet to double check. It is really only available for posterity and for those who might feel like having a play with it.

Sorry, I have an issue regarding your program GOGPlus Download Checker v2.4:

When I unpack the zip file with 7zip I see a error message ("Warning:There are some data after the end of the payload data"). If I use winRAR, it is ok. After all, it is no exe file located in the unpacked folder! Windows Defender delete it instantly.
With VirusTotal I get 3 findings from 3 engines.

I would like to use the program. What can I do (or could you do something)?

Thanks!

It sounds like your AV is causing the issue.

And nothing am I right, from all the other engines?
So in reality you have three false positives, which is a regular occurrence with programs created with AutoIt.
Some AV are a bit slow at keeping up-to-date, with Windows Defender often being one of those.

If you got a lot more than 3 findings, then I'd be worried. But as it is only three, I would either wait a few days, until Windows Defender at least, is no longer giving a false positive, or you can do as I do, and just add an exception for GOGPlus Download Checker.exe in your AV.

Unfortunately, this is often a matter of timing, and you've been affected, whilst many other downloaders haven't been, or you would see their posts in this thread and or at GitHub. So if you are troubled about trusting me, just consider that, and I wouldn't want to tarnish my reputation with GOG, considering how many games I have bought from them, so there is that too.

Cheers!

P.S. If you do make it an exception in your AV, and you still get an unzip error, I would be concerned that something may have infected or corrupted the file, somewhere on its journey from me to you. I extracted my copy with 7-Zip without issue.

Long delay, sorry, but thank you for your reassuring reply (I have not forgotten)!

Now I get no more false positives, but when unpacking with 7zip (latest version) still comes the unpacking error mentioned in my last post. I downloaded their latest update again from GitHub - still the same result.

What version of 7-zip are you using?

Newest 23.01 (64Bit)

Awesome program, it's been a help to manage my unwieldy library. However, Results.txt files are not generating most of the time. If the application is processing a batch of files, are errors highlighted anywhere in the event a results log is not created?

It seems it's marking some scans as "SKIPPED" despite being completed. But this only happens with a batch task. All is OK when files are added individually.

Edit: Clarity.

This is not a program I personally use much now, so I will have to look into it, as it has never been my experience to have it do as you say.

SKIIPPED as I recall it, means the file type is not acceptable. Normally you should either get PASSED or FAILED.

It would be helpful if you could provide the entries of the List file where you had such an issue. Some game names to check, that I also might have at GOG could be helpful too.

You do get a separate limited report in the LOG file.

What do you use as an alternative? That may be the easiest solution.

I use gogcli.exe by Magnitus, along with my own GUI for it.
You could also use gogrepo.py, but that requires Python be installed.

Both can download a manifest that contains MD5 values for Offline Installer game files.
And those MD5 values are quicker to check, because they are for the package files (EXE and BIN), rather than for each file contained within those, which is what gets checked by GOGPlus Download Checker, and a much longer process..

That said, GOGPlus Download Checker, unless something has changed with a new version of InnoExtract or Offline Installer files by GOG, should be working well enough. I did run a test and all worked fine, but for a proper test I would need to test with something that has given you an issue.

It might also be, that you are not using the program properly, and only a full description by you could determine that ... steps and list entries.
