rafi, I do not restart my uT or even entire "server" for weeks or event moths. I started to do daily backups some time ago, but uT is just a faulty software and even if it puts aside resumed.dat as resume.dat.old it's still not something that can be used in case of failure. Unfortunately uT is not an open source project so I can't change the code ;-) I changed my approach and wrote another script to stop uT, do backup and start uT again. It works, but only when started interactively from powershell. Due to session isolation in Windows it doesn't work properly when run as scheduled task. You just can't close gracefully uT from technically different session. So now having improved script i'm will be doing backups from time to time. The script makes it easier, but still not automated. Once a week should be enough. EDIT: There might be a chance to run the task with desktop interaction. Will keep you posted.

Problem solved. After some investigation using BEncode and some trial&error changes I was able to set tag valid=1 and remove resume_valid tags for each file. Quite painful in case you have to modify a lot of entries, but anyway those changes solved my issue.

Hi All From time to time my uTorrent 3.4.2.32691 crashes. Not so often, but to be on the safe side I do daily backups of my AppData\Roaming\uTorrent. Since it crashed on 15th of January I tried to restore its config from backup. It works, but only partially since after starting uTorrent tries to re-check the files which actually have been completed some time ago. I can't allow uT to rehash 2TB+ files just because it crashed. All the files are ok, no reason to do rehashing. Is there any "dirty shutdown" flag/bit to change uT behavior? And why this is happening i f the configuration was restored from the backup? Actually I tried few copies from different days, the same result each time. Regards Prot
