Same temp and completed folders issue

Post by w0ble »

My temp and completed folders are the same. This however becomes somewhat of an issue as follows:

During the download the folder name is for example Movie (2009). Once the download is complete and everything has been extracted and deleted, the folder name becomes Movie (2009).1. It's quite obvious that during the extraction, since the folder name is already in use, a duplicate is required hence the .1 at the end.

Can this be overcome without the need to have a separate temp folder? Maybe I am missing something?

Thanks.

This is exactly why you need an incomplete folder. Just make one within your complete download folder, like:
C:\whatever\downloads
C:\whatever\downloads\_inc
