(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi all, after a few hours of dealing with this error, I finally decided to investigate and see what was going on.. For those who don't know what this horrific error is:
Whenever you open up debugger, it will set on a downloading dialog box and never finish
You must login or register to view this content.

I'm here to tell you how to fix that!

First of all, you need to download MultiMan or any homebrew application that will allow you to have read and write access to dev_flash/blind.

1) Start said hombrew application and allow access to dev_flash
2) FTP into your PS3, this can be done through Target Manager using File Explorer
3) Navigate to /dev_blind/sys/external/ or /dev_flash/sys/external/
4) Copy all of the files there
5) Navigate to C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\SN Systems\ProDG Debugger for PS3\flash_files\0404063e\ on your computer
6) Paste all of the files that you copied into that folder

That's all! It should start up fine once you do that Winky Winky

You should know, all of the files located inside of the external folder do not necessarily need to be copied over, but it's a whole lot faster than individually picking out the x amount of files that need to be transferred over.

*Note: If you can't view these folders, make sure that you go into your file and folder options and check "Show hidden files, folders, and drives."

No problem, I searched for this a bit and never found an actual solution to it, so I decided to post a thread on how to fix it to hopefully help people out.

Doesn't matter if you go to windows explorer and type %appdata% Winky Winky
Good point though, may be different for others. I'll add that to the thread.
