HDL Batch Installer

PS2 HDL Batch Installer v3.7.0.0

Hi Matias, I'm using your tool and everything's working fine but I have two questions: first, what do I do if some games just refuse to instal and I get some pink messages; second, how do I uninstall a game?

Thanks in advance.

I am trying to download v3.3.0 revision 1, but both the 32 and 64 bit versions from:

https://github.com/israpps/HDL-Batch-installer/releases

will not download. Instead, my anti-virus (Avast) keeps on stopping the download, with the message:

"We've safely aborted connection on objects.githubusercontent.com because
it was infected with Win64:AdwareSig [Adw]."

Are the files infect, or is this a false positive, please?
 
False positive AFAIK!
You can also try PFS Batchkit Manager.
Anti virus will also complain of PFS batch kit manager because the threat inside the package is wget.exe

There is no harm at all!

This program is more than 1 year old by now, if it had a virus you wouldn't be the first to find out

So i'm trying to use this to format my internal HDD (since I don't have a Free Mcboot MC and don't seem to have a working pathway to setup since my DVD drive is 3.00)...

I'm trying to use the HDD management section of this tool thinking I can format my 1 TB internal Drive for ps2 and setup with Free HD Boot. However it's not automatically installing the WNDB driver. It keeps erroring out on that part. I tried to setup that dokan manager thing as well... anyway, I'm lost. Any advice on how to get this setup to format my internal drive would be greatly appreciated as i'm learning that winhiip seems to not support 1 tb HD's.

EDIT: So I managed wiggle my way thru getting my FreeMcboot card setup after imaging my HDD with image FHDB. Since then i've went thru all the other setup steps to get my internal HDD ready for putting games on. I formatted it, opened up OPL once, verified folders were in there. I'm now getting the HDL batch installer to recognize the HDD in my pc, but it's acting like it's having permission issues or something. I'm getting a "00000005 (5): Access is denied." readout in the command and an error 1L listed in the interface itself.

Any insight as to what could be the problem?

EDIT: I figured this out. Apparently it likes my laptop but not my desktop. Both machines on Win10 too. Go figure. This app works wonders by the way. Thank you!
