Re: download_dir cannot be changed - Windows 10
Posted: September 16th, 2020, 10:29 am
I had this same exact issue. I just downloaded the newest stable SAB windows installer version , but not sure if the issue was happening before the new version.
If it matters, I am on Windows 7 still.
I have always had the below directories, but now the #1 is showing as C:\Users\LLL\Downloads\incomplete (C:\Users\LLL is the Default Base Folder), and when i trying to change the "Incomplete" folder, SAB does not even show the "ProgramData" folder (same for Finished and Completed folder option), even though C:\ProgramData does exist on my PC. The temp folder always defaults to Downloads\incomplete. Does it matter that SAB shows it as Downloads\incomplete and not C:\Downloads\incomplete ?
And if I try to manually override it, it gives me "Error: Path length should be below 60."
1) C:\ProgramData\NzbDrone\Downloads\1) Temp DLs (Incomplete)
2) C:\ProgramData\NzbDrone\Downloads\2) Finished DLs (Watched )
3) C:\ProgramData\NzbDrone\Downloads\3) Completed
Is there no way to change the Default Base Folder?
thank you
