Usenet Explorer

I have a problem when saving articles from newsgroups. If any author har more than one reply to a thread, all of the articles are saved with the same name, thus overwrithing what has already been saved. Is there an option somewhere that can be set to avoid this overwriting? Menu->Edit->Properties->...

Usenet Explorer will tell you when you need to renew the license to continue using the search service. If the search service won't work for you it is something else. I tried right now and the service worked for me.

Have you looked at Getting started from the UE homepage?

And it sounds like you are trying to run UE(Usenet Explorer) from the install file? as it shows the "release history" page. You need to run the UE.EXE to start UE.

Those control what settings get copied and pasted.

Thx.

If you are using NTFS you can make a junction point where you want that points to UEs import folder.

Could I have a corrupt database that is not working with new version? So you are able to extract/install the new version but when you run the ue.exe you get this "file corrupt" error? could you attach a screenshot? Does the UE window appear? You could test if your database is the problem ...

Come back from the future and try to (re)download version 2.7.1.

It works fine for me!

Hi, This may be a bit of a longshot, but is there currently any way to export the downloaded headers of a particular newsgroup into some sort of usable format (text, xml etc.)? Right click on the headers you want contextmenu->Advanced->Export headers it will save a .NZB(XML) file with header info. ...

This is absolutely perfect! I was just wondering if there was some way to do this when UE reminded me of a new version and here I'm reading the relnotes that exactly this has been added. :D Now I just wish UE would return control to me (header scan practically locks me out) so I can install this ne...

Yes, view filters support for search service results has been added,

If you move the Settings directory from UE database directory to the new DB location, you should get all relevant settings like subscribed newsgroups and server settings.

I made a request for this before, the response fom Alex was if there was more requests.
Hopefully this is enough requests
