📋 Troubleshooting

The software does not open

Check if you have an active internet connection. Ensure you have the latest version of the .NET framework installed on your Windows machine. Restart your computer and try to open the application again.

Search results show no data

Check the spelling of the email or username. Some platforms may block automated searches. Try the search again later if the platform puts a limit on your connection.

The screen looks blank

Resize the window to refresh the interface. Check if your antivirus software prevents the tool from accessing the internet. You may need to add the software to your allowed list in your firewall settings.

🌐 Background Information

This project merges various open-source intelligence methods into a single package. It relies on Python scripts under the hood to perform queries. The interface uses PyQt6 to provide a stable look on Windows.

The software automates the manual work of checking many sites at once. It saves your time by aggregating data from sources like Sherlock and Holehe. Use this tool for digital forensics or security research.

📖 Best Practices for Investigations

Start with a single piece of information. Expand your search after you confirm the first few details. Document your steps as you go to avoid repeating work. Use the reporting feature to save your data for your records. Export your files regularly to keep your research organized.

Keep your version of the tool updated to ensure compatibility with search sources. Check the repository link occasionally to see if new features or fixes arrive. Use clear titles for your saved reports. This habit helps you find specific investigations among many files.

Choose strong passwords if you connect the tool to any personal accounts. Do not share your investigative reports with unauthorized people. Keep your digital findings safe to protect your process and your target's privacy.

The tool provides a foundation for your research. Treat the output as a starting point. Verify all findings through direct observation where possible.
