Title: Download queue Clearing when Altbinz closes? even though download isnt complete
Post by: bobbarooskie on February 11, 2009, 09:49:04 am
Hello I have a quick question

When I download something in Altbinz and if I close Altbinz half way through the download, then the next time I open Altbinz the the files that I was downloading disappear from the download queue

I don't recall having this problem 2 weeks ago.  Any help would be much appreciated

Do you have Auto Cleanup enabled?  Maybe a problem with that.  Cleanup will remove files that are paused.

if you're using Vista, (with UAC enabled) you might want to try and put altbinz and it's config folders (where the .abz files are) -outside- of \program files\..
cause UAC limits access there

ie put it in c:\programs\altbinz\ instead or somesuch.

if that doesn't fix it then something else is the problem

Only if the download is complete.

Setup -> Miscellaneous -> Autosave Queue enabled?  Can you locate misc\queue.abz file?

Edit: note that versions after 0.25.0 have queue backups, see https://www.altbinz.net/index.php?page=vhistory

Arggh  >< Many thanks, for some reason my Autosave Queue number got set way high.  The problem is now fixed.  Thanks for all of your help and suggestions!
