Hello, i foolishly pressed pause/stop when sabnzbd was post processing (repairing) my download and now i dont know how to resume that process. The download has some small errors since i cant unrar them well. Iam new to usenet files and now wondering how to fix this thing. Sabnzd also says 4700 articles are missing.
I have some par2 files but iam not sure if sabnzbd downloaded them all. Now it only displayes "PostProcessing was aborted" and i cant find the option to get it to resume repairs or downloading additional par2s

QuickPar crashed so i downloaded MultiPar and clicked the .par2 file of the problematic rar sequence and now its slowly trying to fix the missing blocks.
So i guess thats the answer to my problems but maybe not to my original question as to how to get sabnzbd to resume on repair job.

a 2TB download? How is that possible? Did you put different posts into one NZB?

Its kind of an internet archive type of thing with old arcade game machines and a front end . It has over a thousand rar files
Update to noob report: Happy news: After letting MultiPar work the par2 files it repaired all the missing blocks on all the thousand rars except for one block on one .rar file , its header remains corrupt. It might unrar now i hope and the content on that file is not so big thing. Iam thinking it would be awesome if one could choose to download only the parity files in a case like this, it might be that i didint receive all of them.

You can: put the full NZB into the queue (paused), click on the folderl icon, and deselect what you want.
