--remove-mass-followers 10 seems to do nothing and returns an "extra data" error message. Anyone else had this issue or know of a fix?

Connected devices via adb: 1. That's ok.
'grep' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

seems to want to work a little better when using a config file to start the remove-mass-followers job but it gets stuck at scrolling to the bottom. I waited 30 mins for it to timeout and it won't and it's been at the bottom for a while now. Still seems to need work.
