Installed 2.3.6 from 2.3.5: WARNING API key incorrect

I just upgraded from 2.3.5 to 2.3.6. The install seemed to mix up my shortcuts from both versions and didn't delete all of 2.3.5. I had to uninstall both versions and then reinstall 2.3.6. Now when I run from Sonarr I get a WARNING API key incorrect, Use the API key from Config->General in your 3rd party program: 127.0.0.1>Sonarr/2.0.0.5252 (windows 10.0.17763.0).

The API key in SAB is static and won't let me change it to the key that I see in Sonarr. The sonarr key is also static and will not let me change it to the one I see in SAB.

Windows 10, with Chrome as a browser. Test Server is Connection Succesful.

You can change the SABnzbd API key in Sonarr, make sure to edit it in Download clients and not Sonar's own API-key :)

Thank you so much for the quick reply. That did solve my problem. After installing 2.3.6 I no longer see the program in windows 10 Start Menu.

Is it installed in C:\Program Files\SABnzbd?
If you open Start Menu and start typing SABnzbd, will it find it?

Safihre so sorry for the delay. The program was not in C:\Program Files\SABnzbd but in another directory. I moved it to your suggested location and I still do not see it when I look for it in start. To complicate matters when I do start it my queue is gone. Do you have any suggestions?

How did you install exactly? Seems you didn't use the regular installer, maybe you used the Standalone version?

I used the Windows Standalone (64bit).

That is why all the shortcuts are messed up, because you did not use the installer. You have placed it in a custom location, maybe even left it inside the archive.

Please install using the Windows Installer :)

Done. All good except my old queue is gone, but that is not really a problem. Thank you much.
