.nzb opens old version of altbinz
« on: December 07, 2010, 01:28:06 pm »
Using latest altbinz (0.33.3) on desktop but when I open a .nzb file it opens alt binz 0.32.1 and so the download queue gets erased each time.

I have deleted the old version from the computer, I have no idea how to stop that association

Using Win 7 x64 HP

Opening 0.33.3 from desktop

Go into setup.
NZB tab
Uncheck 'Register NZB extension to alt.binz"
Click OK.

That should be it.

No way. Repeat ALL steps inside new version.

I don't understand how it can be opening a .exe that you said you deleted. Clearly it couldn't have been deleted.

Thanks for the help and it is driving me nuts too

Definitely deleted the old program - did a search on my computer and looked for any version.  Only 1 version exists.

Tried to do the association and it keeps going back to the old version again.

How can it run something that doesn't exist? It makes no sense and I don't really know what else to advise apart from: try using Process Explorer or Process Monitor to see exactly what's going on (check process directories).

Thanks for suggestion  - used Process Explorer and found it was using a version that was installed into Program Files - did not come up on search of computer - not sure why.

Anyway deleted it

Thanks very much for help, appreciated it
