double downloading

Post by damez2000 »

Why is it that whenever i click on something to download, it puts 2 of the same file in sab? And then when i go to my downlad folder, there are 2 there. is there a way to make it 1 file instead?

Usually that's because you have associated NZBs with SABnzbd (in the installer)
and at the time you store the files in SABnzbd's watched folder.
Or you associated NZBs with SABnzbd and use a third-party browser add-on that supports SABnzbd.
Or a combination of the above.

Use SABnzbd's uninstaller to get rid of the association.
Or don't set a Watched folder.
