Downloading from www.town.ag

Post by Mattk »

Town now password protect all their files with password 'DANKEwww.town.ag' but I can never fully download the files without any problems as it will say 'Unpacking failed, archive requires a password'. I try to extract manually and it usually fails saying 'wrong password'.

Can anyone help?

Thank you.

It says its not the password when I do it manually but I've just tested one that failed and it worked this time.
I did some Googling and I've found the solution - didn't realise that you can rename the file whilst its still in the queue and add the password.

I think all is ok now but thanks for replying.

You can also put the password in a file, as described here:
http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/configure-folders-0-7 (item "password file").
Just put the password on a single line. It's a simple text file, to be created with Notepad.
You need to enter the full path to the file, e.g. c:\users\me\documents\password.txt
