Hi,

When I download a file, and it succeeded there is no problem and it is moved from my download directory to my media directory. However, when a download failes due to missing articles it sends a failed notification to Sonarr and a new downloads starts, but the old download is left behind.

I am using 1.1.0 RC 3 If that matters.

Here are some screenshots:

Also not sure if this matters but i have both failed download on Sonarr and NzbToDrone script.

They are super small so here are the respective links:

Please describe clearly what "the old download is left behind" means in your case.

its in the 2nd screenshot but a folder with the name of the nzb that was downaloded is left behind often empty and sometimes with random files like (.par .rar) left behind.

It's still not clear to me where the files are left.
Is that in SABnzbd's "temporary download folder" or in their final destination?
