Unhandled exception due to non-existing dns-entry

[Isegrimm]

Hi,
When I start Flickr-downloadr and log in, the app crashes with an unhandled exception error.
In the logfile this error is found:
System.Net.WebException: The external name cannot be resolved: 'farm0.staticflickr.com'

This is correct, because this dns-entry does not exist (anymore?). Is it possible for users to instruct the program to use a different URL? Or can the URL be fixed in the code?

Sorry for the really late response on this - were you able to get past this error?

No, I ended up using a paid tool to do this.

@lhkjacky - assuming you're running Windows, can you please try these steps to resolve this issue?

1. Ensure flickr downloadr is not running
2. Open Command Prompt - press Start key and type Command Prompt and select Command Prompt app
3. On the terminal, type rmdir /S %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\flickr-downloadrand typeYwhen it promptsAre you sure (Y/N)?`

This removes all the existing data and you will need to sign in again.
