Re: New computer and FileBot is naming stuff different, "...E20201007"
Turns out clicking the Preferences option (which I never once did) solves everything, TYVM!!!!!!! Though surprisingly my file paths actually work: https://i.gyazo.com/89d859a26884dc1085138ce4e9caef78.png I don't know why, I'm a dude who's "notgoodatthis" stuff.

New computer and FileBot is naming stuff different, "...E20201007"
I have no idea how to set this stuff up so under Edit format I just copied how it used to be: https://i.gyazo.com/5227d27f12c68e7423d883fe916bc6d9.png But it's not dividing the files into seasons and the episode titles is coming out like this: https://i.gyazo.com/b2cf14f57285322cebd11d6c6326737b.png ...

Can't get a Shortcut to Filebot on my desktop
Hi, I'm using the one from Windows Store and I can't find a way to make a shortcut to it. I can pin it to the taskbar but I'm just used to a desktop icon, so any help in how to do that would be appreciated.

Re: I bought Filebot from the Microsoft store for $9.99 in late 2016. Do I get some legacy license?
Well, it's not quite fixed yet. Now when I click to rename it tells me "License Required." It won't work without this license, and one of the links is a 1 year subscription for $6.
Really? I bought this program 5 years ago, do I need to buy a lifetime now for $48?

I read the active license directions and it says to check for email from [email protected] I never got an email from there. When I check emails I find original purchase: https://i.gyazo.com/c90996ae293f95e016fc0c9c864a78f3.png Figured I deserve the license thing. :) If it matters, once back then I ...

Re: Need help stopping the files from moving after rename
Ok I messed around and clicked to change it to this: {n} - {s00e00} - {t}. I I don't know what that is but it kept my files where they are renamed every episode. It kept them separated by season folders but it didn't rename the folders. Is there something I can change that does this but also names ...

Re: Need help stopping the files from moving after rename
I'm sorry, I just don't know how to get this to work. What I do is download stuff to Z:. I want to rename it and keep it there because I then copy the file to my backup external hard drive. Then I cut/paste it to my Movies/Shows folder. I tried this: I clicked match, on the bottom clicked format. I ...

Need help stopping the files from moving after rename
Hi, I am really, really NOT good at this stuff. Very limited knowledge about tech stuff, so would really appreciate help.
When I rename a file it moves it to Z:\C\Users\NAME\Media\Movies. I don't want it to move and I found some directions but I don't understand how to do it.
Could anyone help?

Re: I heard there's an update that includes a Plex naming thing. how do I find it?
ok, got it working, ty. So do you need to change the folder to the location back where it already was every time? Not too hard, obviously, just wondering if there's an option to have it like the other formats were where it returns it to the same folder it was already on. I didn't change destination ...

I heard there's an update that includes a Plex naming thing. how do I find it?
I am running 4.7.5 and I saw there's a 4.7.5.0 (that's new?), and something about one that has {plex} as a naming style thing, but I'm not seeing a link on where to download. Is there an update button in the app? I don't see it. When I click the Windows 10 download page place it just tells me it's ...

ok, that was weird. I tried re-installing it several times but it wasn't until I uninstalled it and reinstalled it that it came back. Delete this thread if you want.

I'm maybe just doing something wrong, but earlier I found out how to use it, but now it kept telling me there was an update so I did it and it no longer works. I drag the files into the original files, click match -- thetvdb, then rename, but nothing happens. Made a quick gif showing me click rename ...
