Lord Alderaan Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 You can stop the torrent and continue another time. This will not result in corruption.P.S. Pause is actually only useful if you want to stop a torrent for a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 You could use Scheduler in uTorrent to stop the torrent/only run it certain hours of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 do a full stop instead of pause, but yes it'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xHaruse Posted March 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 oh a full stop :/ wont that just make it delete or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 No. A remove would delete.Stop commits the changes to disk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Alderaan Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Yes use the Stop button. It doesn't cancel the download. It just stops the download (for now). You can even close µtorrent or Shut Down windows and start µTorrent another time and it'll continue all the torrents exactly where they left off before without any loss of data.The pause button is only if you want to pause a download for a few minutes and don't want to lose the current connection to the other peers (=people you are downloading from) you have.Corruption might occur when you for example End the µTorrent Task or Kill the utorrent.exe process using the Task Manager. Or when you force the machine power off instead of properly Shutting Down Windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
