Sorry, development of HelloNzb has been paused for a long time now ...
I just saw that someone posted the same problem over 3 years ago. https://sourceforge.net/p/hellonzb/discussion/general/thread/59e48b63f9/ I'm really not interested in installing a newer version that includes Java if I don't need it.

Is there any way to use a portable version of HelloNzb with Windows 10 if Java is already installed? My Java is Version 8 Update 351. I thought that was the most recent version. I tried version 1.4.9 of HelloNzb and was told Java was not installed.
Sorry guys, but i really need a better problem description. Since it's working fine on my end, I cannot reproduce your error. So can you please tell me WHAT EXACTLY does not work for you? Thanks!
SBNZB is the only one that works on Windows 10 currently.
Yep, same problem. Cannot successfullu load dowmload directory or any other for that matter.
I use HelloNzb multiple times a week without any issues. What exactly does NOT work for you?
same problem but even more annoying, it won't clear a successful download from the queue so it won't advance to the next. hellonzb 1.5.0/1.5.1, jre 9.0.4, high sierra 17G66
Hey, does it not work if you just use the unrar.exe command line program from their web site?
Support rar5
That is quite weird. I cannot reproduce this problem on my machine. When you select the download folder via the GUI, and click SAVE on the settings panel, then open the settings again, is the selected folder still correctly there?
Had the same issue, had to manually type in the path instead of using the browse gui to select the folder. Problem worked around, but there is definately a bug.
Can you send me the full log file please?
Same problem. I can create as many directorys as I want in the dowload directory setting, but after select it and save the settings, START pops the error: Impossible to create the download directory. Thanks for your help.
Built-in JRE does not support SSL
Updated to 1.5.1
Okidoki, I have updated HelloNzb to version 1.5.1, which should fix this SSL issue. Could you please check it out and tell me whether it's working for you now?
Now that's quite strange . I just tested it with an Altopia account, and both connecting as well as downloading files from there worked fine on my machine. So we need to find out what could be the problem on your end ...
Your computer (probably Windows) account.
Goood evening; I don't understand, which account? Thank you
Thanks. I will contact them and try to find out why it's not working just with them.
Does the account you are running HelloNzb with have the permissions to create the account? Have you really double-checked that?
Good evening; I have a problem with the HelloNzb software, when I click on play to start downloading the NZB files, I receive an error message: Impossible to create the download directory, Thank you for your help
It's Altopia
Well ok, but I need to test HelloNzb with your provider. Can send me a DM / email with your provider, please?
Host/IP were changed but port was not
Hey, in your log I can see the following line: DEBUG: 1| > Connecting to server 'host.name.example/123.456.78.90' on port 563 Have you changed that just for this message?
You're right, I will update the installer!
If custom JREs are not supported then it should not be possible to install without the bundled JRE.
Since version 1.5.0 HelloNzb expects to run with the bundeld JRE. I am sorry but we cannot give you support to run it with a custom JRE. If you really want to use your own runtime, then you will have to copy a (stripped-down) version into a "JRE" sub folder within the HelloNzb installation directory.
Launcher attempts to use built-in JRE even when it is not installed
Built-in JRE does not support SSL
I have updated HelloNzb to version 1.5.0, which should fix this problem. This release comes as an installer that includes a stripped-down version of the JRE. Please let me know if it works for you now, thanks!
Updated to 1.5.0 for new Setup / installer
I will soon release an update that fixes this problem. In the meantime you can install JDK 9 which also works fine.
Latest version now prompts for java runtime environment version that doesn't exist, java runtime environment 1.9.0. Current version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is Version 8 Update 201. Please advise, Attached screenshot of window that pops up.
Fixed bug in save preferences logic
Hey i am getting server unknown or not reachable, can anyone assist? i checked under server settings and under host name is correct and the port is correct. and the check box for Secure Connections (SSL) is checked.. any help will be great appreciated...
Fixed bug that prevented from saving data to disk in some rare cases
Add /Server/Settings/Host /Server/Settings/Password /Server/Settings/Port /Server/Settings/Thread/Count /Server/Settings/Username to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\me\mabra\hellonzb and fill them with your values. I think there ist something wrong with // sepcial case: server settings tab for(String key : serverSettingsPanel.keys()) savePrefKeyVal(key, serverSettingsPanel.getSettingsValue(key));
HelloNZB will not retain Server Settings
Using 1.4.8 windows exe, it seems like you are unable to save server settings. Looking at the registry there is no entry for /Server/Settings

Hellonzb java error message
Great to hear it's working for you now.
Problem fixed. Downloaded, not v8 - not v9 - but version 10 (yee har) of Java [64-bit], and now HelloNZB works, LOL. Cannot wait until Java gets to version 1 googleplex [1 with a google of zeros]...
Both versions installed, still get "this needs java 1.9.0"
Have you tried both the 32 and 64 bit versions of Java?

Another thought... With cyber coins...crypto currency...some "wallets" will download entire blockchain...150 GBytes to 200 GBytes...to disk. If even one "block" (segment) is missing, truncated, corrupted, or incorrectly time/date stamped...then the entire blockchain must usually be downloaded from scratch. This is a growing problem. World needs tools to examine individual block...check correlation with prior block and next block...replace and integrade new block if flaw is found. This problem seems...
Couple of odd things. Mostly with files that have 4000-5000 segments or more. Also...the large segment count must be for a single file. Usually two-three seasons of an anime, in 720p or 1080p, compressed into a single bundle. (1) Sometimes percent complete goes bad. Sometimes "progress" reaches 100% while many segments are left to download. I have never been able to finish a download after this happens. (2) Sometimes after all segments are downloaded, HelloNZB will stop decoding in the middle of...
Thanks for your feedback. What exactly are these issues with very large files?
Hi. Yes, I am using 1.4.7 now. It has some minor issues with very large files. Maybe I can use Java 9 later this year, after a few revisions. Thanks.
Hi, unfortunately it is not easy for us to switch back from Java 9 now, sorry. But how about using HelloNzb 1,4.7 if you need to use Java 8?
Java 9 is an issue
ClassDef error with Java 904-11
Great!
Yes! I have the splash screen up now. Outstanding. I can debug the remaining command line options separately. Thank you.
Hi, can you please try it with the following command line option: --add-modules=java.activation Does this solve your issue?

Yes. Thank you. Now I can see the interface. Excellent.
Ah. No worries. I see if I am able to download Java 9. Thanks!
Thank you very much. Have a good weekend.
Hanging on large files (9 GBytes and up)
Fixed.
Hello, this bug has been fixed in latest version 1.4.8. But you'll need Java 9 for that.

NZB hangs when SourceForge is offline
Hello, this has been fixed in latest version 1.4.8. But you'll need Java 9 for that.
I think I need a manual for the different config settings in the registry. HelloNZB seems like it's trying to check a version number against an online sourceforge location. But sourceforge is currently moving the HelloNZB database. Therefore HelloNZB hangs. I tried to disable this checking, but was unsuccessful. I would like to disable ANY attempt by HelloNZB to access sourceforge. That being said...can you post a link to a manual or user guide that explains all the registry keys? Thanks!!
I used to have the following shorcut to start HelloNZB with sufficient RAM for very large file. "C:\Program Files\Java\jre-9.0.4\bin\java.exe" -Xms256M -Xmx3072M -Xmn1640K -jar D:\Apps\HelloNzb\HelloNzb.jar The Start In is also D:\Apps\HelloNzb Even is I shaved all -X command for a straight: "C:\Program Files\Java\jre-9.0.4\bin\java.exe" -jar D:\Download\Apps\HelloNzb\HelloNzb.jar All I get is the a Java.exe command line window and never get the HelloNZB interface. (Yes before that command line window...
