@dublinstand can you please provide some description of what you are trying to do, your environment and what you expect to happen? Just posting an error message is not very helpful :-/ please provide a reproducible example if possible!
Hi @christian-bromann

I'm not able to properly set up the appium-windows-driver on an old windows machine. I'll keep this open for people who have more patience and time for Windows to help with this.
For now appium-windows-driver is not supported with this module
