So far the only thing I have found that would cause this: when SABnzbd is terminated improperly, it will try to do post-processing again. This is caused by obsolete state info in the queue.sab file and cannot be fixed (since we cannot save state every millisecond).
What is improperly: if the logfile does not end with "saving queue.sab" and such statements.

Should your problem occur under different circumstances, I would be very interested in logging files (with debug level set to 2).

Indeed the cause was a brute stop of sab, shutting down the computer when sab still active.

See also my comment at the end f this topic.
Solution seems to be always end sab via the shutdown button, else .....
