Can SABNZBD delete used nzb-files automatically after downloading?

Thanks for any reply...

Marco.

Yes it can, but only from its "Watched Folder" and only when it has access rights that allow it to delete files.

I place the NZB in the folder Incomplete, and it starts downloading. All the files are removed and deleted, except the NZB. So I believe it has all the rights it needs. I don't get it ....

You shouldn't use the "incomplete" folder as "Watched Folder", it can have side effects.
If you want to use an existing folder, use a sub folder of "complete".
