Hi,
Alt Binz seems like a great tool - wow - Thanks!

Apologies if this has been asked before but I have just started using Alt Binz - and followed the Quick Star guide to setup.
I then search for some nzb files at one of the search engines and downloaded the .nzb file. I then opened the nzb file with Alt Binz and it started doing its stuff - excellent.
However, I then noticed in the download folder that it was downloading the the same rar files twice - e.g the first download consisted of 81 rar files .r00 to .r79 and the .rar . However, after some time in the folder I noticed it had finished downloading .r00 to r79 and .rar  BUT it was also downloading .r00x to .r56x and the Alt Binz interface showed it still had r57 to .rar in the  download queue.
I though perhaps I had opened the nzb file twice??

So later I tried another .nzb file and checked it only appeared once in the download queue - but again it downloaded the .rar files twice.

I checked the log file and I could see it loaded .r00 to .rar and then it started again at .r00 for the same set of files.

Have I done something wrong in the config? Any help appreciated!

all default folders shoud be different.

It appears you redownload something because your auto import folder is set to your default download folder?
or your uuto import folder is your nzb folder?

if that is the case change them all to different folders
