Apart from me putting unwanted file extensions in Switches : Post Processing : Cleanup List, is there anything else I need to do to get cleanup list to delete the unwanted files after the download completes.?

I've had nfo, nzb, sfv, jpeg, jpg in the Cleanup List for months now, but every time I get a new download, I get a full download of all these extra files. It's driving me crazy, and I'm wondering if I've not set Switches properly to do a Post Processing deletion.

Running the latest Binhex - SAB NZBD in a Docker Container in Unraid.

Thanks for your help - it's a great program.

Yes, I understood from you that these files have to be downloaded for SAB to function properly. But I also understood cleanup list would then delete them in post processing.

However, I could never get Cleanup list in post processing to work, so for a long time, I just tried to work around it.

But yesterday I picked up 1 new episode in Series 7 of a programme, i.e. 1 media file - and it brought in over 200 nfo, and jpeg files from all seasons. Granted they are all small, but it's annoying me as I have to go to each download folder and manually delete loads of unwanted files.

So I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong, as I don't think I should be getting 200 junk file with one wanted file.

Can you share the .nzb file itself via pastebin?
