DreadWingKnight Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Which .torrent are you expecting it to delete? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 you have to store torrents for uT to run. As the FAQ says, uT uses two locations for storage of .DAT files and .TORRENTs either %APPDATA%\uTorrent or the local directory... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 .torrent files are removed from utorrent's own storage folder. Not anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wscientist Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Hello!I've noticed that the latest betas of version 1.8 doesn't delete mine .torrent files located in the %AppData%\uTorrent folder after selecting Remove -> Delete .torrent. I just can't understand, is this a bug or is not? The files are deleted only if they are not Read-only. But by default they are Read-only. I open the files directly from Firefox with open-with function. I have not selected storage folder in Preferences. The only modification is that the gui.delete_to_trash is set to *false.

GTHK Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 I have noticed and mentioned this as well. This only happens in Fx 3.0 however, 2.0 doesn't create read-onlys. Try leaving feedback with Mozilla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTHK Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 It's when it's opened from Firefox, to µTorrent. With Open with: µTorrent.exe selected you press ok: With Firefox 2, the .torrent is fine, with Firefox 3, it's read-only. If µTorrent copys the file with all the flags set from %temp%, then Firefox 3 must be setting the file read-only. Checking my %temp% folder reveals a .torrent with read-only set, I just used Open with on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 It should be fixed for RC2, in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
