Download List Clears On Program Close

Postby Andy_Carr » Mon Sep 24, 2012 5:02 pm

Hi

I was running 6.34 latest build and found when I closed Newsbin and re-opened later the files that were in my download list were no longer there. I'm now on 6.40 build 2057 with the same issue. I expect it will be something simple but would appreciate some help.

Thanks

Andy

The first thing to suspect is the downloads.db3 file, in your Data Folder(you can open that from Options). If it's become pooched or read/write permissions are wrong on it, this might happen. Try quitting Newsbin, rename the file, then restart and try again.
