this happens when trying to check other accounts. So currently u can only acces the account for which u gave sign in information

Ok thank you for this reply. So we cannot use this tool to investigate on other accounts ?

Having the same issue anyone found a fix? it used to work fine

[LeViiAcKerMan01]

Then is their any advantage of using this as a info gathering tool....i dont think so. Earlier it used to work very well but now it is of no use ,This is useless ,so we are wasting our time to download these useless tools which themselves their contributors are not contributing too.....seddddddd
