Can't Customize DeDRM plugin

[slm]

I just tried to add information for a new kindle to the DeDRM plugin. This has always worked fine.

Today I got the message that the widget init() "takes 2 positional arguments but three were given".


I recently updated to 7.12.0 but I don't think I've done this in quite a while, so I'm not sure what the last version that worked was.

The details text was:

Anyone have any idea why this happened or how to fix it?

Thanks.

Reading some of the issues makes me laugh. It's the ones where DeDRM fails on Linux because the person is trying to do something that should be done with Windows.

Try rebooting in safe mode and see if you can configure DeDRM. If you can, you'll need to figure out what you run that's getting int he way.
