Radarr has a setting which will delete files when a movie becomes unmonitored. By any chance did you recently unmonitor everything or make a change to whole directory like rescanning ?
I did unmonitor everything recently. For fuck sakes didn't know it did that. Just thought what's the point in monitoring the movies if they're all how I want them. Apparently I fucked myself.
Maybe you've seen the comments above but might not be the case.
Second guessing myself now but I remember finding such a setting (in addition to the reverse... Unmonitoring if deleted from disk), and thought it sounded dangerous.. but it was disabled by default from memory.
One other thing is that Radarr has a recycle bin... I think 7 days retention by default. I've never checked it myself but maybe you can get your stuff back from there?
Of course if it's empty then I guess Radarr didn't delete them.
Eek where is this setting? I see the setting to unmonitor when deleted but not the other way around.
Like you, I don't see that setting, and only see the one you see. I don't think it exists. I think they just had it backwards.
It makes no sense to delete movie files when clicking unmonitor.
I think it's this one, but it looks to be disabled by default...
Edit: Actually no, I don't think that can be right because this setting is for Import Lists. Unless OP's entire library came from an Import List?
My library did not come from an import list. I too can not seem to find this setting. So it must not be the case?
