To find out what's wrong, you need to either:

• Add a progressbar and update it as the application runs through each function.
• Use ConsoleWrite() to help you track what the application is doing as it runs when you are debugging in Scite.
• Log your progress/success/errors to a log file that you can examine after you have run the application.

I would recommend doing all the above.
