A Viewer for Windows, ESP32 Projects, Cast, NotifyOnDemand, Push2Run and SetVol

So I recently dislocated my knee and the need to get rest has me hating any time I need something from my PC, which led me to this excellent app. I tried setting it up and I double checked I followed the setup but I can't seem to run any voice commands, with the log telling me it's not in the right format:

I get the notification that it created the "command.txt" file but then it instantly disappears, which is reflected in the log. I'm sure its something I'm completely blind to, but if anyone could help me correct what I'm doing wrong, me and my knee would definitely appreciate it

ok so that is weird.

It appears you have everything set up ok, but in the command file that IFTTT is sending you there is a blank line right after the first line:

I thought it may have been due to the length of your title field, but tested on my machine and it was not (everything is working fine):

Can you please go in and edit your IFTTT applet, I'm think there may be something in it that we are not seeing; like a white space after the <br> in the first line. For example, what is in your IFTTT applet is really Push2Run_MunsterDog<br>(space)

Please check that and let me know if that helped.

You are a genius, sir. I erased any spaces in between and now its working perfectly. Now I don't have to grab my crutches every time I forget to turn my pc off. Thanks so much

Great, glad to have helped ...

and thank you for including all the screenshots, it made what would have otherwise been a difficult issue to track down issue much easier to solve.
