Hello, I previously had no problems at all and everything would download to my main C drive to the default User\downloads\complete and all of those movies are still there and not disappearing. However, as this is my main drive I was running out of space so I set sabnzbd to now download to my D drive which is a 2nd SSD attached to my computer. The new download complete directory is D\movies (D\incomplete for temp). There are no issues downloading or playing however some time later, in the most recent case less than 24 hours, all the movies from D\movies disappeared. They are nowhere to be found and are not in the recycling bin or on my computer using the search function. Are there some settings I messed up? Is my D drive not formated correctly? I dont see anything in the log that shows the files being moved/deleted they just poofed.
The issue clearly has to do with my new download destination /hard drive as the previous files on the C drive are still there, but it all works fine until they disappear at some point when I am not looking.
Downloaded movies are disappearing after I changed download destination

Re: Downloaded movies are disappearing after I changed download destination
Okay so I dont think this is a problem with SABNZBD anymore as I downloaded a torrent a few days ago onto my C drive and it has since disappeared as well. I have done some googling and it appears there is something called "Storage Sense" in Windows 10, i have turned off so I am hoping that was the cause but I have my doubts. If anyone has any other ideas I am all ears.
