🧩 VHTV Forum Puzzle 🧩

My attempt to decode this using AI produced a broken link; it had a /tv/... after the .tv, but it should just be /t/.... Could that have happened in your case too?

Better do not use AI for that one :wink:

When i got that string out of the ā€˜container’ i got that answer i posted. Since that i did not think further about it until today. After I looked at the whole string and thought ā€˜stupid google’, i used decoder like jabs just posted.

here you find alot online things

To anyone interested: I’d like to make an offer you can refuse:
As is now clear, an external tool—either installed or portable—is required for an intermediate step. Not everyone likes that, especially since it relies on command-line parameters and lacks a graphical user interface.

If you send me a private message containing:

  • the name of the program
  • the required file (as an attachment or filename)
  • and the necessary password

…I will send back the output generated by this program. However, you’ll have to handle the steps before and after that yourselves.

One caveat: if any of those three pieces of information is incorrect, you won’t get a reply or any pointers—just a disappointed smiley face.

My default settings made THIS point easy for me. :smiley: I imagine it would have been a huge problem otherwise.

The funny thing is, he actually got that tip from me. :man_facepalming:
…albeit in a different context

That’s what I thought.
Next time, Jabs will surely base the presentation on that. But since we’re wise to it now, that won’t do him any good anymore, provided you know how to use the internal browser tools.

The hint was there to find it. The disk :wink:

I found my insight from the little picture more interesting (BoPet).

It might make sense to edit or delete a few of the overly obvious tips from the last few hours…

Putting it in spoilers might be enough. I am thinking to post the solution in a seperate hidden topic where I put a link here so people can see for themselves without getting spoilered here directly.
