Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When using the Drifty application, error messages displayed to the user do not provide much aid in helping them troubleshoot or understand what may be the problem with a certain download request.

Describe the solution you'd like.

I would like the application to provide more actionable error messages that are descriptive, and in plain english. As a result, the user may be able to fix a mistake in their request, or at least understand what may be causing the download to fail.

Also, please check the latest code by running the application in an IDE (preferably IntelliJ Idea Community Edition).
NOTE : Please run Drifty_GUI file to start the GUI and Drifty_CLI file to run the CLI. You can find those java programs in the GUI and CLI directory under src/main directory.
