Hey guys,
I had the same issue, but I didn’t want to remove the service and run it as a startup item.
Therefore, here is what I did to solve the issue, first thing, I wanted to give the service rights to log on as my Windows user account, this was done by going through the following steps:
- Go to Local Security Policy (from Control Panel -> Administrative Tools)
- Security Settings -> Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment -> Log on as a service.
- Hit the Properties for Log on as a service and add your User account.
Once you have done the above, go to Services, and open NzbDrone Service, in the Log On tab, change it to “This account”, and add your windows user account (Browse for it and check the name to confirm).
Stop & then restart the service, and you should be able to add Windows Network Shares under a UNC. ex, \\NetworkPCName\Folder\Sub-Folder
