[Bug] Frozen client after clossing tabs....

Postby jalh » Fri Aug 17, 2012 4:18 pm

hello community,

Here is my problem, a couple releases back ( don't remember ) the newsbin client started crashing after closin the tabs from the open .nbz files. For example:

1. I would open newsbin with admin privileges.
2. Then I would load an nbz file by file>load nbz...
3. After loading a few of them around 3 - 4 and closing them after downloading what I want, the client would crash.

I have not noticed if this only happens while in admin since if i lauch the app by double clicking I would not be force to load them since I could double click the nbz files itself.

I don't Know if this is a well known bug or something I'm doing totally wrong. i apologize if this is the wrong section.

Thank you guys.

I'm using version 6.40B7 Build 1997 (64bit). Again, this started happening a few builds ago.

It's never happened to me. That's why I was wondering.

Is there anything special about these NZB's?

None at all. They all come from different sources, different types of data (music, video, softwares, etc etc.) I guess a clean install would only fix this weird problem.

Thanks for the help.

Possibly, but if you're planning on installing it exactly the same way which requires you to be running in admin mode, maybe not. Of all of the information you've offered up, that's the only suspect thing I can see.

It's not that newsbin crashes when run as admin(it doesn't, as far as I've ever seen on the forums) , it's more that this is the one out of the ordinary data point.
