    The files themselves all have "good" data, but they're padded with garbage (usually zeros) after where the file should end. In theory, the zip files will work anyway, but clrmamepro will definitely complain about them being wrong. A simple truncation to the correct filesize will fix the files.

    A force re-check does not fix the problem, since µTorrent does not truncate files, ever (which is probably a bad thing).

    We're investing to see how we can fix the problem. Unbuffered writes in Windows have a limitation where filesizes must be an exact multiple of the block size, so you need to open it in buffered mode to create it, then drop back. Unfortunately, this sporadically fails, so it ends up having to create the file in buffered mode.

    Could you send us your settings.dat? This might help us see what combination of settings you have that could be the problem.

    there is nothing wrong with the settings dat

    the problem with the files occurs even with clean 3.0 or 3.1 utorrent with clean settings

    even with checking or unchecking disable windows cashing

    the problem does not occur in 1.7.7

    the problem exists for quite awhile see my previous post with technical details

    thanks for ur time

    I think we fixed that, but it can still happen with certain combinations of settings (as an unavoidable problem). You'll need to UNCHECK the bypassing of the Windows write cache to guarantee it never happens.

    and the response

    Just tested uTorrent 3.1 RC11 which is marked to become the next stable release.

    The problem still hasn't been solved.

    I haven't been able to do the MAME Titles test without getting wrong sized (padded) files, no matter which cache setting I choose.

    any news about that issue?

    thanks for ur time

    Napo the Great - The issue was answered in another topic. I think in previous versions, depending on how you had set sorting, the focus was on the row not the content of the row, so when the row changed (in the main screen) the content in the tabs below would change. An example would be if you selected a row in the downloading cat, switched to the seeding cat, the tabs below show files, etc would clear because the row that was selected under downloading lost focus. That same thing would happen if the row you selected moved its location in the grid. So you have to make sure the order of your main grid did not change while you were/are trying to rename/relocate a file on the files tab. I do not see this problem in the latest verson, (Although there can be a problem when you are going to change/rename/relocate a bunch of files and the order of the grid on the files tab re-orders the list on each change - when the change is actually performed - and you renaming/relocating faster than uTorrent can perform the actual task. I have had to slow down and wait for uTorrent to change the name/location.... so I could then go on to the next one.)

    thanks for ur responce

    how about the other problem with the corrupted files that utorrent creates?
