Ck3 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Hello,in case this is already possible I'd like to know how, but I couldn't find a way to do it: When I download a torrent that is made out of a bunch of archive files (bunch of rars/zips), sometimes (rarely) one of the files gives a CRC error when decomressing it. I'd like to be able to redownload just that specific file, but I couldn't find a way to do it, and I just redownload the whole torrent.I think it will be helpful to have that feature, like right clicking on the specific file and choosing 'redownload'.Thanks for your time.

FriedCrispyHuman Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 When you redownload the torrent, just select the file you want. If you get CRC errors, you may have a damaged hard disk. I had a hard disk failure recently. The data was becoming corrupt after downloading. I had to throw the disk away and I lost my files Backup your files and run scandisk regularly. (Also, for future reference if you can enable S.M.A.R.T for your hard disks do so). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Delete the offending file and force a re-check.No need to fuck with a swarm's piece distribution by using selective downloading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ck3 Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 I somehow missed the force-recheck option, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
