NinjaFrog Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 i downloaded a torrent successfully. somewhere along the line, for reasons ill skip, i removed the .torrent file from utorrent. i tried to load it up again in utorrent with the original .torrent file, and get a message saying:"it looks like the file you are about to download already exists in the folder for completed downloads. Do you want to use the data in that directory instead?yes - use the data in the complete folderno - download the torrent from scratchabort - dont load this torrent; just skip itthe last two options im not interested in because because im trying to seed a torrent that ive already downloaded not download it again, and i dont even know what the yes option does, nor do i care, because when i click on it, it loads the .torrent file, status is queued for a few seconds, then status changes to downloading. argh! i do not want to download it but thanks for trying utorrent!if i stop it and set the download location, it is directed at the original folder, just as it should be. so i force a re-check, and then it just begins downloading again. why god?so i tried downloading a new .torrent file, and when i load it up i get the same message again. i cannot for the life of me get this bloody torrent to seed! i have two choices.....go insane trying to fix this......or fail miserably. i would like to fix this. please someone...anyoneive read the migrating FAQ and also "migrating FAQ didnt work" thread and still nothingshouldn't this be easy???thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Because when you reload the torrent in uT, you have to specify which files you want to skip. Same thing when you force a recheck. I think all your files in the torrent are in Normal priority, you have to skip these ones you don't want to seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
