Auto Folders

Postby iNd » Mon Jun 18, 2012 10:47 am

Hi all and sorry for the noobish question.

I recently upgraded my computer and installed NBP 6.32

On my previous PC/NBP version, if I created a folder named "New Downloads" (or anything else) and launched NZB files from that particular folder, all files downloaded would automatically go into that folder and that made things very convenient for organising stuff.

I cannot seem to find the option to make 6.32 behave that way, can someone point me in the right direction please?

Many thanks in advance.

Hmm, I absolutely might be mis-remembering or possibly mis-understanding, but if you're saying you could double click on an nzb file and the contents of that would download to that directory, no matter where that is, that's not a feature I recall from any version.

If you're saying you want to leave nzb and have them autodownload, to that same location, you can set that by making the auto-download and the download folder the same. However, this is NOT recommended, ever. What it means is Newsbin is constantly scanning and re-scanning *everything* you download, and your IO will go through the roof.
