Need some help

Postby BillyClub » Thu Mar 19, 2015 5:45 pm

Hope I'm in the right forum!
My XP went belly up, worked one minute and the next nothing. Ended up with a newer Win 7.
Installed what I thought was 6.52 (that's what I remember using) and just looked and now it's 6.56 B3339 and the two files I had saved on a external HD both say 6.52-install.exe...anyway it seems to be working great, the speeds are great but I remember on 52 when I deleted headers they were completely gone, on 56 they are put into the trash, is there a button I'm missing.
Also when finished downloading I end up with many files in the Downloading Files section that have no name and show 0, anyway to fix that?
Lastly if I decide to back to 52 would I lose all the setting that I just entered in 56 and vice/versa if I go up to the latest 60 or whatever would that solve the problem I seem to have and would that keep my settings.
Thanks for any assistance...BC

In the autopar options there's a setting for using the recycle bin. I'm assuming you're talking about the files list and Deleting files.

I'm unclear about what you're seeing in the download list. How about right clicking and making sure "Show Filenames" isn't checked and see if you see anything different.

Quade: Many thanks for the speedy reply
Please forget about the first part of my question (my mistake)..
As for the second "Show Filenames" is not checked - makes no difference one way or the other in the state it's currently in.
I captured a screen shot of what I'm talking about only to find I need special permission to upload, understandable.
Explanation: On the bottom portion of my NewsBin screen is "Downloading Files(12)" which has a blue ball with a check for each of the 12 files I'm talking about.
Next comes "Size" which has a 0 listed, followed by "Current Progress" which shows is all finished.
I know I can do a right click and "clear list" but that was not needed before. I just don't know what those 12, 0 size files are doing there.
Many thanks again...BC

I'm looking at the blank lines thing. It seems to only happen with NZB files.

6.60 doesn't do it and neither does 6.55 so, I'm kinda at a loss.

At least I'm not seeing things...I was running 52 before and I never saw it.
About 95% or more of what I DL is from NZB files so it's a bother.
Is it possible to install 55 or 60 on top of what I have now (56) and keep all the current settings?

Thanks.....BC

6.60 won't load the older download list but all the other options should come forward. I actually worked on this today. Figured out what was happening with the double lines. Dex and I are discussing what to do about the fix since we don't really want to put out a new 6.5X,.

Thanks...I guess I'll wait for a while....I'll check back in a day or so to see if you have decided on anything.
