Yeah, maybe give 7zip a try, I know some people have had some trouble in the past with the Windows extractor.

Are you definitely sure it is in the sourcemods folder? `Steam\steamapps\sourcemods\hl2oe` should have all the game files in it, make sure its not in an extra folder there or something.

Oh, looks like the default config file has some SPT commands in it, but because SPT doesn’t work with that version of the unpack they will just give an error. They should be fine to ignore.

You could also edit `cfg/config.cfg` and find all the `y_spt` lines and remove them to stop the errors showing in future.

Is AHK updated to the most recent version? Maybe an incompatibility between that and latest Windows version or something 😕

AHK needs to be downloaded and run separately, you can get it here:

[https://autohotkey.com/](https://autohotkey.com/)

Once it is installed you should just be able to double-click the `Scripts.ahk` file to start it and then F3 will enable/disable it from running.

Definitely not, but because of the way it controls keyboard input it is quite often falsely marked as one
