I have downloaded the files and created a new environment using the provided "environment.yml" file successfully.

However, I got an error message when running the following in the terminal: python download.py --years 2023 --data_dir .

The error message is below:

(patents) C:\Users\alant>python download.py --years 2023 --data_dir .

The URL that is in the code for download.py is correct and can be accessed through the browser, so I am confused as to why this error message was raised. This is the URL: https://bulkdata.uspto.gov/data/patent/grant/redbook/2023/. I got the same error message when running the code for other years.

Thanks very much for the help in troubleshooting this issue!
