Hi, I receive the following error when trying to download anything using zotify (both original and your fork). I have a burner premium account and it worked the last time I used it a few months ago.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 198, in run_module_as_main
File "", line 88, in run_code
File "C:\Program Files\Python312\Scripts\zotify.exe_main.py", line 7, in

jsonvalues = json.load(config_file)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

File "C:\Program Files\Python312\Lib\json\decoder.py", line 353, in raw_decode
obj, end = self.scan_once(s, idx)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Invalid \escape: line 5 column 24 (char 152)

After this point it reverts to my input. Are there any fixes for this or is it borked because of the recent changes Spotify made? Any help would be appreciated.
