Hey, I'm on windows 10 and this code doesn't seem to work no matter how many times I try.
Funny thing is it used to run on my old laptop, but I'm making a mistake God knows where that is leaving me empty-handed.
Can someone please help?
Thank you!

Well, I didn't really understand, the "cd" command can only goes to directories. If you are trying to run the script, paste "cd ~/Documents" and press Enter, then "sudo python3 ColdTurkeyBlockerActivator.py".

You are on the wrong path (The file is hidden) access it by enabling show hidden files in C folder or enter this path:
C:\ProgramData\Cold Turkey

I ran it and the app is still on the free version.

I'm on 4.6 version and this worked for me. Try the code JustaTurtle21 just updated above, https://gist.github.com/miketartar/0fc8d7bca2369ce73ea9ee7b6e0c3775?permalink_comment_id=5426749#gistcomment-5426749.
Just download python, set up the environment, create a file name.txt, and open CMD, type "python name.txt" and it should be worked.
