Well done for using VMs for testing, it always makes me happy to hear
One of the reasons I use Transmission is because with SickRage you can specify the moved folder for completed downloads (this is different than the final post processing directory SickRage moves files to). So basically in SickRage for Transmission choose any folder to download to that you want SickRage to monitor (this should not be the final destination directory) and post process.
So with your example @IT_Feldman SickRage would monitor the Current Downloads Folder (this is also the folder you will tell SickRage to download Transmission files to) and then have a Finished Downloads folder where everything that is post processed will end up. I attempted to make a diagram on the configure Sickrage page to illustrate this.
You do not need to remove python but you may as well uninstall Cheetah using the uninstaller, since SickRage no longer uses Cheetah. In a hidden directory C:\ProgramData there should be a SickRage folder, you should delete that.
Sorry but Transmission doesn't support SOCKS proxies (there is some good reason why I believe but I can't remember it).
The Plex posters is usually an agent setting, if you change that or rearrange them and do a force refresh then it grab the metadata correctly.
Have you considered using Sonarr instead? It has quite good Anime support and support additional torrent providers through Jackett (I have a build your own guide). It doesn't do subtitles like SickRage does though.
