Not even sure what to do with this, I'm trying to convert from Kaspersky to 1Password, TXT to anything usable for 1Password, but I can't get anything working, presumably because I get an error when installing the modules. I put in .\install_modules.bat and it goes through saying they all failed to install. I'm in admin mode but I don't know what I'm doing... help

    Hi @Victoria1029

    I apologize for the delayed reply.

    Are you able to take a screenshot of the errors you're getting and share it here? I'd want to see the first errors that occur in the command window when you try running the module installer. Be sure no confidential information appears in the screenshot.

    You don't need to, or want to (for security) reasons, run the command shell in Admin mode.

    @MrC sorry for the delay, wasn't on my computer yesterday. Anyway, this is a screenshot of me attempting to get this running. To start you'll see me struggling with getting it to go through the first command. I kinda get it to where it needs, but that might also be why things aren't installing, idk.

    Ok, I see. Your home folder is stored on OneDrive, in the cloud.

    To make this easier, move the mrc-converter-suite to the root of your C drive. Then, cd into that drive, as in :

    cd C:\mrc-converter-suite

    The try the module installer:

    .\install_modules.bat

    Sorry, that's not going to resolve this issue. The problem was that you were running an Admin shell, and it created a folder in your home called ".cpanm". That folder is not writable to you, so the installer cannot unpack the modules there.

    You'll have to delete that folder first, as an admin, and then run the install_modules.bat as a regular user.

    Windows will hide certain folders / files, and that includes names that start with a period. So you have to either disabling the hiding of these (to be able to use Explorer), or you need to use an Admin shell to use the command line.

    See if this helps:

    @MrC Unfortunately for me, I already checked with hidden files/folders on. I tried searching in file explorer across all my drives with that on and nothing came up with the name ".cpanm"

    I'm really sorry about the trouble this has caused you. Let me see if I can replicate creating the problem, so that I can provide a sure solution.

    I believe the problem is due to your Desktop folder being on OneDrive, and the command line not being able to find the path due to this redirection. I don't use OneDrive in my Windows accounts, so have to create an account that has this OneDrive redirection active.

    I'll get back to you as quickly as I can. Hold tight...

    I've not been able to reproduce the issue you're seeing.

    If you open File Explorer, and go to C:\Users\Victo, do you the .cpanm folder like this:

    If so, are you able to right-click and Delete it?

    so uh good news? I kinda got it working. I just made the .cpanm folder where it wanted and was supposedly able to covert the files.. now I'm just stuck on the actual import part. i found the import option, but I don't see anything for files. jut all the typical options of like csv, or browsers. nothing for .1pux files

    Wow, great!

    You need the Desktop app to import the the 1PUX. Then, within the import dialog, you'll be able to select 1Password as the password manager. The will be the 1PUX option.
