I fixed this problem but encountered new problem. Problem was that some parts that came throug my decryption were 00 or 0 the first symbol so the program didnt show them. 

NEw problem is : Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Marko\Desktop\hacker.org\XOR cypher.py", line 35, in <module>
    print("Key-" + str(võti) + ": " + str("".join(tulemus2)))
TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance, bytes found

If i  take away the join command i get this: Key-00000000: [b'u', b'o', b'\x00', b'\x1d', b' ', b'|', b'N', b'\x0f', b'9', b'j', b'K', b'J', b'&', b'#', b'A', b'K', b'5', b'k', b'_', b'\x1e', b',', b'j', b'\x0c', b'\x08', b'i', b'(', b'\x06', b'\\', b'r', b'3', b'\x1f', b'V', b's', b'9', b'\x1d']

the Key-00000000 is the key im using to decrypt the code. everything else is generated byt the decrytion process and the unhexlify command. So my guess is, the join command cant handle the b"u" type of format. how can i get rid of the b.

Or does anyone have a better idea how to translate HEX into ASCII and sort out the lines that make sense
