sorry,it’s my fault.I missed another changing in DanbooruDownloader/Commands/DumpCommands.cs replace:

static async Task Download(string uri, string path)
        {
            using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient())
            {
                HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync(uri, HttpCompletionOption.ResponseHeadersRead);

                switch (response.StatusCode)
                {
                    case HttpStatusCode.Forbidden:
                    case HttpStatusCode.NotFound:
                        throw new NotRetryableException();
                }

                response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();

                using (FileStream fileStream = File.Create(path))
                {
                    using (Stream httpStream = await response.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync())
                    {
                        httpStream.CopyTo(fileStream);
                        fileStream.Flush();
                    }
                }
            }
        }

with

static async Task Download(string uri, string path)
        {
            var handler = new ClearanceHandler
            {
                MaxTries = 3,
                ClearanceDelay = 3000
            };

            using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient(handler))
            {
                HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync(uri, HttpCompletionOption.ResponseHeadersRead);

                switch (response.StatusCode)
                {
                    case HttpStatusCode.Forbidden:
                    case HttpStatusCode.NotFound:
                        throw new NotRetryableException();
                }

                response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();

                using (FileStream fileStream = File.Create(path))
                {
                    using (Stream httpStream = await response.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync())
                    {
                        httpStream.CopyTo(fileStream);
                        fileStream.Flush();
                    }
                }
            }
        }

Thank you very much, I actually about to start getting the ball rolling on this project! I would suggest making a pull request so other people wont just give up immediately like i was about to do lol

I greatly appreciate your response. However, my knowledge of C# is quite limited. I’ve tried to compile the existing code using my Visual Studio, but without any luck. I’m also stuck at the 403 step, just like you. Seeing your modifications has sparked my hope again, yet I’ve been unable to locate a compiled version in your fork, which leaves me unable to execute the code. Would you be able to provide an executable exe file that includes the fix for the 403 issue? I would be immensely grateful.
