Script execution failed - generic error

Hello,

I think I have a simple problem but just can’t figure it out. I have Siril setup on my laptop and it works just fine. I am using script OSC_Preproscessing_WithoutDBF. I have loaded it onto my desktop (exactly the same as far as I can tell) but keep getting an error. I have a Seestar s50 so just use the lights. As I said, no problem on the laptop but I cannot run the script on the desktop. Any ideas?

Directory in center of top toolbar is showing D:\Siril Directory\lights

That’s the issue. Your Home directory should be set to D:\Siril Directory.

In it’s current state, the script is looking for a Lights directory in your Lights directory.
