Kinda buggy, Sabnzbd 0.72 keeping old settings?

Post by BoonDoggie »

So i got a new SSD and had to reorganize my now 5 hard drive setup, which consisted of crazy drive letter due the partitioning structure, which was temporary. With my fresh install of sabnzbd, however, for some reason the default dir is my F: drive which i DO NOT WANT!! I've done everything, editing sabnzbd ini file, erasing all I can and uninstalling the program to get it to got back to normal (C:). What... the... hell.. can I DOOOOO!!
My F: drive has my music work on it and I cannot afford any of it to be corrupted by any chance, even though i back it up. I dont want that drive touched!

Have you looked at Config->Folders at all?
There you can set each folder path.
BTW: if SABnzbd picks F:, it means that the data of your
Windows user data is there too.

Sorry, by default dir i meant the default USER folders, my bad. As my folder defaults to F: it creates a folder there and downloads my temporary download folder there. My completed downloads go to their proper destinations. I know i sound a bit picky in this, but I have to be paranoid about my music work!!
And yes my OLD Windows data temporarily went to my F: drive, which is not the same as my current F: drive (my now music work drive) but since I've redid my drive structure, thats all changed. But somehow sabnzbd keeps remembering this. Nothing else goes there, just sabnzbd temp user files, which is why I think this isnt a Windows isssue.
Also, even when i cha\nge the folder back to where i want it, I save the changes, I reboot, and sabnzbd goes back to the old F: folder!!! Weird behavior!
