[Bug Report]

Problem

Check for existing files always reports 0 files found even if the same album/artist discography/playlist was downloaded twice or three times in a row right after each other without touching the files on disk.

This wasn't the case in v7.0 if I remember correctly and as it is now it severely increases the time on a second or third pass for missing songs on batch downloads.

Type

Album / Artist / Playlist

Spotify URL

https://open.spotify.com/album/09PYkGcZ7yH3UnAAuHSKzN

Additional Context

Version

SpotiFLAC v7.0.6

OS

Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19045 - amd64

@NhKPaNdA commented on GitHub (Jan 22, 2026):

I did some digging into it and found out that when CheckFilesExistence in app.go is called, it doesn't account for the folder structure settings that are applied and acts like no subfolder structure is selected and just puts the download path and the filename together to check.
