Instapy might have an issue with accessing instagram because of there being no cookies found. For this a simple fix is to add the line:
browser.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[2]/div/div/div/div[2]/button[1]").click()
in login_util.py:269 in your instapy module:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\Lib\site-packages\instapy
after the if cookie_loaded: statement
1 - In main.py enter your instagram credentials in place of the userName and passWord variables.
2 - Configure the file and set the desired comments, delays and volume of posts targeted in main.py
3 - Run the program by entering python main.py plus your desired tags targeted, for example python main.py vase minimalism would target the hashtags "vase" and "minimalism"
