hi all new user here

been using newsleecher like forever and decided to change my habbits and to be honest seems very good
i am a little stumped on the password file

i understand it needs to be in .txt (notpad)

so once i put the password on each line where do i save the file and do i need to name the file a set name?
sorry if its a silly question to ask but cant see any answer on it

thanks

You can set passwords in multiple ways, the password file might not be the most optimal as it takes quite some cpu to try all passwords. If you know the password of a specific job, it's better to make sure it's set for the specific job.
See https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/advanced/passw ... ected-rars

It also explains about the password file, where to configure it. The location doesn't matter, you can just configure it.
