Issue with coursera-dl: Error 400 Client Error: Bad Request

[Omar-Shams-98]

When attempting to download the "learning-how-to-learn" course from Coursera, I executed the following command in the command prompt:

coursera-dl -u oshideo9805@gmail.com learning-how-to-learn

After entering my Coursera account password as prompted, I received the following error message:

`coursera_dl version 0.11.5
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "...coursera\cookies.py", line 148, in login
r.raise_for_status()
File "...requests\models.py", line 1021, in raise_for_status
raise HTTPError(http_error_msg, response=self)
requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: https://api.coursera.org/api/login/v3

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "...coursera-dl.exe_main_.py", line 7, in
File "...coursera\coursera_dl.py", line 239, in main

coursera.cookies.AuthenticationFailed: Cannot login on coursera.org: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: https://api.coursera.org/api/login/v3`

I'm using Microsoft Windows version 10.0.19045.2965, and the coursera-dl version is 0.11.5. What can I do to solve this problem?

I am also getting that error, also on windows 10, with my command being coursera-dl -u MAIL@outlook.com -p MYPASSWORD foundations-of-cybersecurity

I resolved the issue by switching to this fork: https://github.com/raffaem/cs-dlp works perfectly
