0.39.3 won't par check or unrar
« on: October 25, 2011, 08:55:14 pm »
I installed 0.39.3 when it became available and everything worked beautifully until the past week.  Now is seems I download fine but par checking and unraring doesn't take place.  I have checked my settings in the setup section and nothing has changed.  It's kind of a pain to have to manually par check, download parts if needed and then unrar.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  I searched the forum for a possible answer with no luck so if someone could help I would appreciate it. also, I just noticed that urar does not show up in the top ribbon of the download que window like it used to.  This may be of some help in directing me to a correction to this problem.

Close alt.binz
Delete par2info.abz file from misc dir (See https://www.altbinz.net/forum/new-alt-binz-versions/faq/ for location)
Should be ok

Did you close altbinz properly?
How many par2 sets were in par2 tab on close?
I need few of those par2info.abz files that are bad and with as little as possible sets.

I guess good thing would be to backup that file before you start altbinz and see if all is ok or not after startup.
