Setting Complete Folder: SABNZB does not see the network drive

Hey Guys,

I had to change my drive letter on a hme network drive located on another PC. Both PC's are Windows 10 based.

Problem that I am having is that since I changed the network drive letter, my lowes life SABNZB does not see the network drive. If I click to change the complete download folder it only sees the C drive on this PC. Not the network drive.

Any reasons why this would be? Firewall is not an issue.

On Windows, open a CMD box, and in there, type:

NET USE

which mapped network drives do you see? AFAIK, SAB only sees network drives that are mapped to drive letters.

Do you run SABnzbd as a service? In that case, please read the instructions about drive letters :)

From that wiki: "When using network shares with the SABnzbd service, you must use network (UNC) paths (\\server\share) instead of drive letters (P:\)." ... so the opposite of what I thought? If so: ouch ... !
