It seems you have one of your folders setup wrongly.
Check your Config > Folders (make sure to check Advanced Options to see all the folders) and the first page of the Config.
Do any of the paths include System32?

I started getting these same errors as of a few days ago also.

from the log I got this

when just downloading the nzb

[api:410] API-call addlocalfile: file "C:\WINDOWS\system32\********.nzb" not found (I put the stars in)

if I download the nzb as create a zip file with the nzb. unzip then double click on the nzb it will load fine on sabnzb

[misc:997] Creating directories: \\?\C:\Users\Ian FX 6core 3.5ghz\Downloads\incomplete\*********

I have no idea why sabnzb does this and directs the nzb at times to c:\ Windows

I checked settings and there is nothing anywhere that has a path of c:\Windows in any tab

Addlocal files, that's very strange!
When downloading the NZB using your browser you mean? So the browser auto-opens the NZB?

I have also started to get that same error

If i download the NZB in firefox, it no longer opens up Sabnz and starts to download. I have to manually add the NZB for it to start

It's not SABnzbd doing it, it's Firefox I think. What happens if you just double click the NZB in the download-folder?
Otherwise try and re-install SABnzbd using the Windows installer.

Double clicking auto loads to SABnzb

I will try chrome and IE and test again

And I have also this problem. I am running Firefox 72,0b3, and SabNzbd 2.3.9. I've been trying for several days now, but Sabnzbd no longer catch nzb's from Firefox.

Merry Christmas
