Hi @Hendobox,

Welcome to the community :wave:

I am sorry that you are having issues flattening. I assume that you are trying to verify your token contract on Etherscan.

I recommend using Buidler Etherscan plugin to verify as a multifile contract: https://github.com/nomiclabs/buidler/tree/master/packages/buidler-etherscan

If you run into any issues you can post your contract, address and license being used in the forum and I can have a look.

I also suggest having a look at using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) for developing smart contracts on Windows: Solidity Smart Contract development on Windows

Thanks for your response. Will try this out

Hi @Hendobox,

Were you able to verify your contract?

I have the same issue with command.
npx truffle-flattener ./contracts/BoxNftTst10.sol > ./contracts/Token_Flat.sol.
Can I get a any help to resolve it?

@abcoathup I've deployed contract via Remix IDE and now I want to verify and publish it

Okay, looks like it was resolved, I use windows so I assume the issue was the folder where the project is.
The folder has space in the name.
To run npx tuffle-flattener avoid spaces in path
