StreamFab for Windows Scheduled entries all disappeared after installing 6.2.5.0

[zapt]

I just installed 6.2.5.0 for Windows and discovered that all my Scheduled downloads lists (Hulu, HBO Max, and Apple+) disappeared. Other than restoring a backup from prior to installing 6.2.5.0, I assume there's no way to recover these lists.

In addition (although it's not important to me), the Downloaded list for Max has been replaced by hundreds of individual downloads attributable to no service name. I suspect that resulted from the service's recent name change and probably happened in a version coinciding with the name change rather than in 6.2.5.0, but it would have been nice if those downloads had automatically been moved from Max to the new HBO Max list... especially given that the only way to delete them now is to deal with every download one-by-one.

I don't know whether the Scheduled lists issue is happening to everyone or if I was just unlucky. Regardless, it might be helpful to others to screenshot your entries prior to installing 6.2.5.0. Recreating large lists--both the show names and scheduled day/time for each one to be checked--can be extremely time-consuming when working only from memory.

I can't help you with the scheduled downloads but to get rid of the 'Downloaded' items you need to exit SF and then delete / rename the folder 'localdata' in the app settings (usually at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\DVDFab\StreamF ab). (you need to remove the space between the StreamF and ab - for some reason it is re-added there even after editing this post - wtf?)

If you don't, even removing all the individual bogus entries won't help you - they will be there again after restarting SF. At least that was the case for me.

ms-dfav Thank you! Did you notice anything else missing after you deleted or renamed the folder, such as login passwords and Settings?

Nope, everything is still ok, such things are stored elsewhere - SF settings are scattered across different locations but logins and passwords to the services specifically are stored in cookies and settings of the internal browser, which is kind of a separate software contained within SF.
