Is there a ü (u with umlaut) in your user name? Or in your path?
And you're on Windows, right?

Did you use earlier versions of SAB on your Windows system? Which version? Did that work?

[JackRo67]

Yes , my Windows 10 User Profilename has a "ü" ! Must i change the Username ? Its difficult and Tricky to change it, earlier Versions do also not work.
What can i do now ?

[sander]

I'm surprised; I thought SAB on Windows could handle a ü in a username.

So I tried, and I can put my sab-confing into directory umlaut-jürgen. No problem

So something strange is going on.

Are you good with the command line? If so, maybe you can do this as a workaround

Open a CMD (terminal) window in Windows
Find and go into the directory with sabnzbd-console.exe
Then do this:

Code: Select all

sabnzbd-console.exe --config-file c:\blabla\myconfig.ini

With c:\blabla\ a directory that is writable and has no special characters

If you use powershell you should use:

Code: Select all

.\SABnzbd-console.exe --config-file c:\blabla\myconfig.ini

But the c:\blablashould be really an existing folder, not actually "blabla".
