Your browser or antivirus renamed the file from setup.sh to setup.txt
before saving it "to protect you". What browser and platform did you
use? Chrome on Mac? Would be a first... Usually it's just an "are you
sure?" popup.
The smartskills.tech webpage uses -localStorage- which is not shared
across tabs so that's why one tab was unaware of what you had done in
the other tab. Blame browser security for that. :cool:
The subscription is there because I have to pay hosting fees to both
Amazon and my ISP and while I don't mind doing all the dev work for
free, I'm not subsidizing this with actual out-of-pocket expenses.

As Paul mentioned in the previous post (and as post #1 in this thread
clearly states, as do the online docs), you can try it for 7-days for
free. You can enable it with "Alexa, tell MediaServer I want a
subscription".
