_UNPACK_ folder not deleted

Running SABnzbd 0.7.0Beta7 on Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit.

Ever since upgrading to the 0.7.0 betas SABnzbd leaves _UNPACK_ folders after succesfully downloading and extracting files. Everything works fine and a new folder is created with the correct name but the _UNPACK_<downloadname> folder is not automatically deleted.

The folder names do not contain strange characters, just alphanumerics, nothing fancy. Same problem with _FAILED_ folders.

How can I fix this?

Disable folder renaming in Config->Switches.
Windows is totally paranoid when dealing with folder renames and deletions.

Thanks for your answer, shypike. I considered disabling folder renaming, but how would I know if the unpacking failed or completed? (Apart from having the system send an e-mail.)

Ah, nevermind. That's a stupid question. Thanks!
