Help decrypt Enigma

Hey guys, I successfully decrypted multiple enigma messages in the past, but I just can't decrypt this one and an other one for some reason. I assume the reason is the same, I just can't figure it out. I use 1939 september for everything, get hydra code, set up the machine properly, but somewhere along the way I make a mistake and get gibberish.

Glad you figured it out, my recent issues with installing TWoS ALL were from user error, mine, I should have done the same

That's the problem with encryption: make it easy to use and it will also be easy to crack. That's why no one uses it today, either.
