I've got such a basic problem I'm afraid to ask it. Several firmwares ago, I successfully used the new .yaml patching method so, of course, I wanted to try it for 4.11.11980. But I can't get my kobopatch.bat file to run and stay open. I click through Windows Defender (on a Windows 10 machine) and allow it to run, and it runs with a quick flash and then closes. If I make NO edits to kobopatch.yaml file it runs just fine -- and creates a patch file with no changes (doh). I did this just to confirm that I have the right zip update file in the src folder and that it's properly named, because its found. But as soon as I put in a single over-ride into the kobopatch.yaml file, I get the quick run and flash (with no log files created).

I'm obviously doing something stupid and wrong, but I can't figure it out. Attaching my modified kobopatch.yaml file in case anyone can see the error.

EDIT: to be clearer, when I run kobopatch.bat with an unedited kobopatch.yaml file, I get the feedback of "Loading configuration from kobopatch.yaml" and "reading input firmware zip". But as soon as I put in a single over-ride .yaml into kobopatch.yaml, the batch file window flashes momentarily and closes and I don't even get that far...I'm using Notepad++ as always to edit my files.
