8Pence Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Im quite new to this forum and dont know much on workings of utorrent, but recently after installing the new update 1.8 of utorrent, it has been eating up space on my second partion. somehow making the system believe that the space is used up when its not and it could be proven by analysing the second partition in disk defraging thingy (it shows free space as white areas). restarted the pc and windows has recognised the free space but its painfull when its eating up gb's of space for no apparent reason.

thelittlefire Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 ... disk space is not memory.What you're likely seeing is the result of Ctrl-P > Advanced > diskio.sparse_filesSet it back to FALSE, and you'll have to copy the data you already downloaded to make the files be un-sparse.
