Deleting library videos leads to complete program failure #18

Closed tscheney closed 5 years ago

tscheney commented 5 years ago

I deleted some videos that were in the Voracious Library and the program was rendered completely inoperable, giving the following error on program start:

Something has gone terribly wrong

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, scandir '(my video path)'

Also, a panel on the right should have opened with more debug info. Maybe take a screenshot of everything and send it to me.

In order to get it working again I had to go hunting for the preferences and ended up deleting both cookie files, as well as the preferences and voracious.db files in my appdata folder. A reinstall did not fix, because, I assume, whichever of those files that was causing the issue was still there.

Thanks for the report.
