uTorrent can not save file


arrirc

Recommended Posts

Hello

I am using uTorrent 1.6 build 474.

I have been using this program for last one year but I never faced the following problem. Recently I completely upgraded my system and I have two HDDs now, one SATAII 160GB and other IDE Barracuda 7200rpm.

Recently as I tried to save a huge file [of about 9GB], the uTorrent after some time gave me error that

"the file can not be saved...either the disk is full or it is accessed by some other program"..I can not remeber the exact error message but after this if I press cancel a RED cross comes beside the name of the torrent. If I Force Re Check then it shows that the torrent has been there and the downloaded part of the file...but as I try to download it again, the same error message comes back.

The partition where I am saving the file is NTFS..so there should not be any error because of this reason.

I am the Administrator and uTorrent has full read/write access [as far as my knowledge goes].

Could someone please help me?

Thank you.

Thanks Firon for being so Fast :)

Well I remember now that after installing Google Desktop I have started to ge this problem. Now I have excluded the whole drive from its indexing service.

Do you think this will do? Do I need to turn off the Windows Indexing service too?

thank you again.

Could anyone please guide me to a thread for a guide to configure uTorrent so that it can perform best [if a thread like that exist that is]? :)

Thank you all for your reply.

I am not sure Firon that how exactly can I exclude one of the partitions from Windows' indexing service! :?

Thank you Ultima :)

Unfortunately, yesterday I got another error....something regarding Unable to Save Resume File; unfortunately I can not remember the long message, and I could not find a log. I tried to search the thread pointed out by Firon regarding this error, but could not locate it.

Could some one please help?

Thank you again.

Yes I did...as soon as you recommended. :)

Apart from the above question, may I ask you whether there will be similar issues with Copernic Desktop search?

Thank you for your support and please tell me what should I do next.

Ok then I shall install none.

Could you please tell me how to avoid the trouble described in post no. 8 above please?

Thank you.

EDIT//

I have checked...the error is given after every one or two seconds :(

It is "Unable to Save the Resume File......", but the causes pointed out by uTorrent are applicable here. I have checked the error thread again, but could not find a matching one. Sorry if I missed anything.

Please help.

According to one of the old thread in tis forum I tried to create a blank resume.dat and anoher blank settings.dat in the folder where uTorrent.exe is present. But as I restarted uTorrent all my previous settings were gone along with my 1 GB downloaded data. So I had to delete all those files in the exe file's home directory and then anly I got back my old settings along with the downloaded data being recognized by utorrent again.

Please help.

Lots of security softwares, which can easily cause such problems (real-time scanning and all). You might need to try getting rid of them one by one to see if the problem gets alleviated. Try uninstalling the AVG first. And what's with that McAfee service...?

The McAfee service is a component of McAfee Site Advisor. I shall let you know about the result of uninstallation.

Thank you. :)

Hello Ultima

It seems that the trouble was being caused by the fact that XP was not recognizing the HDD properly 'cause there were some problems in the jumper settings of the PATA drive and the DVD drive, both of which are connected by the same IDE label.

I have changed the jumpers and it seems that the things are working properly now. I would like to see for another two or three days before really relaxing about this problem andconsider it as resolved. ;)

Thank you very much for your support. :)
