That got it!. Thanks a bunch for helping me get that squared away -

No luck after installing Python. I wish I knew for sure if it had something to do with the service, or if a straight install of 2.3.1 wouldn't work either. Guess it wouldn't make any difference if I created a user account to try it with, since it would still be pointing to the same winsxs folder? Ma...

Installing that failed with the error "A compatible version of Visual Studio 2008 was not detected on the system. This update is designed for only the Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 (ENU) product family, and is not compatible with any Express editions." I did run the installer with 2.3.1, wh...

I tried the Visual C update earlier, with no success. The reason I think it has to do with the service is because I was able to successfully upgrade on my other computer, where it isn't a service. I only recently (1 week) moved it to my server and tried to run it as a service (which works). It is ju...

Sorry, misunderstood what you were asking. If I run the sabnzbd-console from version 2.3.1, I get the same error as before - The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. See the application event log or run the command line tool sxstrace.exe for more detai...

If I run it now it works, because I rolled back to the previous version.

I guess I can try the Visual C thing. I saw that as well when I was troubleshooting, but since my issue is clearly tied to the upgrade I don't know how it would apply.

If I do that now, it bring up the console. When I tried it before I rolled back to 0.7.3 it gave me the same winsxs error. This is running on Server 2008 R2. I'm assuming it has something to do with the service, since the upgrade went fine on the computer I don't have it running as a service. Just c...

I tried, still didn't work. I tried installing to a new location also, that didn't work either. Tried both the standalone and the installer version. I'm really drawing a blank - seems like maybe a version conflict with whatever Windows has in winsxs, but I don't know how to remove that entry and let...

I recently installed SABnzbd as a service, after using it regularly for many years, and it has been working fine. Today, however, I realized I had a really old version (0.7.3) so decided to upgrade it to the newest. I stopped the service, installed the new version without a problem, but when I went ...
