i ran the command in cmd but nothing happened. ran it as an administrator.
also when i run nzbdrone.Console it shows nzbdrone.host has stopped working
maybe if someone has a link to an older version of nzbdrone that might help?
If no results were displayed, you donāt have that issue! 
Are you on Windows 8/8.1? If so, can you disable Windows Defender service in services.mscā¦ itās actually a full-fledged anti-virus application now instead of the version in 7. From what you pasted, itās definitely crashing nzbdrone.exe when that exception is thrown.

Iād also run MalwareBytes (www.malwarebytes.org). No need to the ātrial.ā
You might have a virus/malware thatās creating proxy connection attempts.

its strange i cant disable windows defenderā¦
disabled defender from the defender app and dint work. trying malwarebytes now
Told ya wrong too on that defender thing (they must have removed it as a service in 8/8.1):
LJ
If disabling defender works, Iād add the nzbdrone (sonarr) as an exception 
disabling defender dint work as well. tried malwarebytes it found some pup.elite which i quarantined and restarted pc but still no luck.
just dont want to give up on nzbdrone (sonarr). its been the best tv app for me
Try these?
http://update.nzbdrone.com/v2/master/windows/
Dev is on there too. Iām running it on Server 2008 R2 w/o issues.
LJ
not working. any idea if i could use event viewer or something to log what actually happens when i run nzbdrone.exe? or maybe anyone can teamviewer and help me
I donated to nzbdrone before because i absolutely love the service and am happily willing to do it again if the developers can help me out also would be willing to donate a little to anyone who helps me out with this as it has halted all my tv shows and is getting really frustrating.
Its just a kind gesture from my end to whoever is willing to put in the extra effort even though lordjynx and markus101 have been really helpful
Make sure youāre using the latest version of .net: http://www.microsoft.com/net - click on the āInstall .NET nowā link (on the right).
You also never answered my previous question:
An older version wonāt change anything, this is coming from something not working correctly on your system, not something within Sonarrās code.
What markus101 saidā¦ did you have a virus/malware/adware/whatever in the past? Even after cleaning, if it changed proxy settings, that is usually left behind as well. All the searches Iāve done point to some sort of Anti-Virus causing itā¦ but, you said you didnāt have any A/V installed soā¦
Do you have VirtualBox [free] or some VM software? Perhaps you could spin up some quick VM and test inside itā¦ if itās working in there, something got installed thatās messing with sonarr.

I just installed this windows 8.1 2 weeks back and never installed any antivirus at all. in malwarebytes it did show some adware but i already cleaned it.
I did install .net already also ran the command ānetsh winsock resetā as mentioned in the link you gave me. I dont have proxy setup in internet explorer.
Did you actually try to install that package? Its the latest available version.
Its two weeks old and already has malware, could have something else that malware bytes didnāt detect.
Iām currently running Sonarr on Windows 8.1 without issue, as are others. I donāt have anything else to add, at this time.
Try the VM like I mentioned above. That would narrow down your OS being the problem at least. Install 8.1 inside a VM and just sonarrā¦ see if it crashes.
LJ
well i just got nzbdrone working on the virtual pc. now im thinking if i can connect my drives to the virtual pc i can just let it work like that.
any idea how i can do it in vm virtualbox? I tried adding the drive through the settings but its not showing up on the virtual system.
lol i cant believe my bad luck. i just got it running on the vm and when i copied my logs etc it stopped working. Now even if i uninstall and reinstall on the VM its not workingā¦
