folder options

Post by chaussettdeguerr »

Hello everybody.
i don't understand why it seems impossible to change this : sabnzb stores each file it downoads in individual folders of the same name as the file itself. ???
I'd like to only store the completed files in the completed items folder.
Is it possible or not ? very boring to explore each folder to catch all completed files.
Thanks for your help.
Best regards. :)

Hi and welcome to the forum. :)

These are called "job folders". You can disable the creation of these by appending an asterisk to the end of your category path(s).
Stuff I like: Apache bash cron DD-WRT Debian DNSMasq Entware FireFox GitHub ImageMagick Kate KDE LibreELEC Netrunner NFS NVIDIA OpenVPN Orvibo-S20 pfSense Python Raspberry-Pi RAID SABnzbd Transmission Usenet VirtualBox Watcher3 XFCE

I don't understand because i don't use these category paths.
My paths are the folders D:\newsbin download and D:\newsbin download\incomplete

What we suggest is that you start to use them to fix your problem :)
In your case you can set * for the Default category as Folder-option.
