hellrazor Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 I keep getting an error message stating file too large for system when I move/transfer/download certain torrents. The file is not that big, largest one being 6GB, and I have plenty of storage on my external hard drive. Yet I had no problem with a 24GB file. Makes no sense.

hellrazor Posted May 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 On certain torrents after check finishes it says file is too big for system. I do not know how to explain this further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Which version/OS? what is your free disk space,and that torrent's files size? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellrazor Posted May 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 I have no idea why my last post did not go through. I am using windows 10, UTorrent version 3.5.3, and an external for torrents. I am not using my laptop hd. The size of the files vary from 1.3GB to 24 GB. I have 495GB free space on a silicon power 1TB external hd. What is really confusing me is the large files I have no problem with-it is the small ones. Makes no sense. I recently noticed that it happens most on files with x264 and/or 1098p Blue Ray.

hellrazor Posted May 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 I almost forgot. I am now getting a new error message that states you do not have enough storage to move files. I have the files set to move to their labels/folder. I am wondering if since I am getting low on laptop hd space if this is the culprit. If so, I do not understand how it could be since everything is set to my external. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike20021969 Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Check that the drive letter of the external drive hasn't changed for some reason since it was first set... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellrazor Posted May 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Nope, it didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellrazor Posted May 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 as I said, all of them. That is why I said what I said. It happens when i move files, transfer, files, label files, and when I download files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellrazor Posted May 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 I fiured out why I am getting second error message. I have set all my downloads and finished torrents to go to my external hard drive, along with their label. So I am wondering why when the torrent is finished it constantly goes to my C: where I cannot find it unless I right click on torrent and click on open containing folder. This is why I keep getting storage error and my laptop hard drive is so full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 It mostly does that when it "thinks" the path is not valid. Screenshot of your pref->directories, and Explorer of the destination? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellrazor Posted May 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 After several freez ups and 5 minutes of cussing profusely I finally got Utorrent to cooperate. Here is the screenshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 All I can say is that this is a completely illogical and possibly recursive mess... If even I cannot understand what you were trying to achieve here, no wonder this makes uTorrent behave crazy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellrazor Posted May 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 I simplified it. Tell me what you think. I am appending to lkabels cause I am tired of constantly having to change folders/locations/names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 And I'm sure you don't have any full-disk warnings now... And instead of trial and error, you better explain what is your goal here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellrazor Posted May 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Oh I deleted a lot of stuff off my hard drive-mainly torrents. I am trying to get my torrents to move into separate files by type of torrent (music, movie, game , etc) that are labeled by what subtype of torrent it is (Sci-Fi-, horror, etc) and still be able to seed. Or at least as close as possible. I am tired of spending several minutes looking for a specific torrent and there area a ton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
