Hi there

I am very new to Flexget and am having issues setting up the configuration correctly.

I have gone through the installation guides and have created a test version of the config file as directed on the Configuration page, but I am getting the following error:

Could not instantiate manager: Config C:\flexget\config.yml does not appear to be a file.

The config.yml file is located in the C:\flexget\config.yml directory and contains the following information:

tasks:
  test task:
    rss:https://eztv.ag/ezrss.xml
    series:
      - This Is Us
      - Arrow:
          quality: 720p
    download: C:\Users\<USERID>\Downloads

and the command I am giving to execute is:

flexget -c C:\flexget\config.yml

I am running the following versions of Flexget and Python:

Flexget 2.10.5
Python 3.6.0

I would appreciate some help on getting this up and running!

Thanks in advance.
