Yes the transaction did went successful, you can scan the address on block explorer 393q5VjNes1din4xx5z2kncaCoUuE42mx1.
Okay, I can see you were playing with vanity on mainnet. It isn't recommended to test stuff with real money. That's why testnet exists. Previously you said that $2,000 are stuck. From the transaction I can see that only $236 are stuck.

Please, try to generate a new wallet with the script option.
I don't have Windows, but I don't think I need to try to execute it. My question is: how did vanity return you an uncompressed private key with both P2SH (3...) and legacy (1...)? Uncompressed private keys are only meant to be imported as legacy. When I had tried it, it only returned the legacy, just as shown in the github page.
