Ok I'm running SABnzbd 0.4.5 atm.
I want to move the folder "C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\sabnzbd" to another drive. Is this possible?

You can specify the ini location (which will also be the log and cache location) using the -f switch
Make a shortcut that points to:
Code: Select all
"C:\Program Files\SABnzbd\SABnzbd.exe" -f "d:\sabnzbd\settings"
This will create new files unless you copy the old ones to that location.
If you are just wishing to make sabnzbd portable, copy the files into the same folder as sabnzbd.exe as sabnzbd always checks for the settings first in the folder it resides.

cheers for the advice. I hadn't realized that you could just put all the files in SABnzbd's root directory.
I wasn't looking to make sabnzbd portable however. I have an OCZ SSD drive and I've been having an issue with sabnzbd making my system hang when it was running. From research it seems these drives really don't like caches of any kind.
I changed the cache location in the SABnzbd settings to point at my ramdisk and it's working a lot better now.
