Hello @TommyJerryMairo,

thank you for using GEF. This seems more like an issue than a discussion. Also you seem to be using a GEF version from July 2021, please update GEF to the latest dev branch and see if your issue still persists. If so please open an issue with a more detailed description when this problem occurs for you: What are you doing beforehand exactly and in what moments are the errors raised. Also please run gef config gef.debug True inside GEF before running the command in question for more detailed error messages and a stack trace. Furthermore always provide us with the output of the version command when you're having troubles. Thank You!

I am closing this discussion for now. Feel free to open an issue as described if you're still having the problems with the newest GEF dev branch.
