I have places an NZB file on the watched folder. The NZB file contains a mixed of RAR and PAR files.
The app subsequently imported it. I looked at the queue and no par files are are showing.
And 100% percent sure there are par files in there.
Is this a feature or maybe a bug?
I'm only asking because I tend to manually check PARs using quickpar and in 1 instance, quickpar said a set is incomplete. thanks!

SABnzbd will delete the par2 files after successful verification/repair.
If you want to do your own post-processing, pick the option "Download" instead of "+Delete".

Well the queue consists of several sets with each set having it's on PARs. and some of the sets haven't started downloading yet BUT I don't see any PARs in the queue.
I got no problem sabnzbd to do par checking/uncompressing. I'm just surprised all the PARs have disappeared from the queue.

As soon as the first usable par of a set is downloaded, the rest of the set's par2 files are
temporarily removed from the queue. They will re-appear (and be downloaded) when needed for repairs.
What's your worry? Doesn't it work?

No worries here. I can easily download them again. Just wondering where they went.
Thanks for the explanation.
