NZB Save Dialog

Hi, I have tried looking everywhere for this and I can't seem to find it in the options. Is there a way that I can make UE ask me where to save the contents of NZB files?

As it stands, when I open an NZB with usenet, it just begins downloading into an automatically named folder in the default downloads folder. I would prefer it if I could specify the download location.

I have discovered a way to do it, but it's annoying. It involves 1. loading the NZB with usenet explorer. 2. canceling the downloads in the articles tab. 3. Selecting the newly added files in the Import tab and then going to Download & Save Attachments.

That's a lot to do everytime. Help?

Thanks,
-Neil

If you want it to have the select folder dialog displayed when doubleclicking nzb file - in edit menu->properties->general->import/search uncheck "Auto - folder out of nzb name".

Also you can use the import menu->download&save and download&save (auto) to define the auto mode explicitly, but when doubleclicking there is only one way possible, so this checkbox defines whether it is auto mode (when checked) or to ask for folder (unchecked).

Thanks! :)

I wish the preferences weren't so clusterfucked and obscure... I guess I can't complain since UE has yet to let me down, it is a POWERHOUSE of features and is always being maintained. :)
