# Running the Program
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Once you are happy you have filled everything in [auth.json](/config/auth) correctly, you can double click OF-DL.exe and you should see a command prompt window appear, it should look something like this:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
It should locate `config.json`, `rules.json` and FFmpeg successfully. If anything doesn't get located
 | 
						|
successfully, then make sure the files exist or the path is correct.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OF-DL will open a new window, if needed, to allow you to log into your OnlyFans account. The window will automatically close once
 | 
						|
the authorization process has finished. If the auth info is correct then you should see a message in green text
 | 
						|
`Logged In successfully as {Your Username} {Your User Id}`. However, if the authorization has failed,
 | 
						|
then a message in red text will appear `Auth failed, please check the values in auth.json are correct, press any key to exit.`
 | 
						|
This means you need to go back and fill in the `auth.json` file again, this will usually indicate that your `user-agent` has changed or you need to re-copy your `sess` value.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you're logged in successfully then you will be greeted with a selection prompt. To navigate the menu the can use the ↑ & ↓ arrows and press `enter` to choose that option.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `Select All` option will go through every account you are currently subscribed to and grab all of the media from the users.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `List` option will show you all the lists you have created on OnlyFans and you can then select 1 or more lists to download the content of the users within those lists.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `Custom` option allows you to select 1 or more accounts you want to scrape media from so if you only want to get media from a select number of accounts then you can do that.
 | 
						|
To navigate the menu the can use the ↑ & ↓ arrows. You can also press keys A-Z on the keyboard whilst in the menu to easily navigate the menu and for example
 | 
						|
pressing the letter 'c' on the keyboard will highlight the first user in the list whose username starts with the letter 'c'. To select/deselect an account,
 | 
						|
press the space key, and after you are happy with your selection(s), press the enter key to start downloading.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `Download Single Message` allows you to download a message from a URL, to get this URL go to any message in the **purchased tab** and press the 3 dots, Copy link to message.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `Download Purchased Tab` option will download all the media from the purchased tab in OnlyFans.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `Edit config.json` option allows you to change the config from within the program.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `Change logging level` option allows you to change the logging level that the program uses when writing logs to files in the `logs` folder.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `Logout and Exit` option allows you to remove your authentication from OF-DL. This is useful if you use multiple OnlyFans accounts.
 | 
						|
