(Or tell me how to turn it back on in case that's possible.)edit: Ok, I can still use "Open Containing Folder" and then open the file from Explorer, but that's just too awkward.I posted a hijackthis log here:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=44434 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 How can you use something you don't have yet?Or do you mean check it when it's almost done?It's generally not a good idea to force uTorrent to always download FIRST the parts needed to view files, as it can badly sabotage other people's chances of completing the download at all. 4th link in my signature tells about what happens in worst-case scenarios.

voskat Posted August 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Several movie formats allow for viewing of incomplete files.There have been plenty of times when after about 30% of downloading a huge file, I came to the discovery that it had been wrongly labelled.

Switeck Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Places where you download those files probably have some type of reporting/posting for bad/misnamed files.If not, find a better torrent site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
