Describe the bug
Trying to install through Github Desktop. Running Python 3.12.4, ran pip3 install -r requirements.txt, ran ankerctl.py, got a flash of another terminal window, but it closed too quickly to see anything. Ran python3 ankerctl.py config import, got all of the response lines that were described in the readme. It said that the printer was added.

Tried running the webserver, which runs, but PPPP and MQTT are both yellow. Ran ./ankerctl.py pppp lan-search and it apparently finds a bunch of my Eufy cameras and lists those and then says it's checking the configured printer IP addresses and gives a completely different ID number and says there's no connection. Checked in the Ankermake app and the printer is connected. If I run any commands like ./ankerctl.py I get the pop-up terminal that immediately closes, but if I run python3 ankerctl.py the response shows in the same terminal.

Running python3 ankerctl.py config decode has some empty fields. domain, mac_addr, verify_code_url.

Running python3 ankerctl.py config show everything seems okay, except that the IP field is empty. I tried to see if the IP address was in default.json, but there is no ankerctl directory in AppData\local. So, something is not working as it should during installation. Not sure if my Eufy cameras are interfering or not.
