rafi Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 In Files-tab, I cannot right-click->open any file. It comes with a pop-up "... the file might not have been properly downloaded.." It is the same for all file types.I have a DL directory set in folders options. It seems to work OK for other Windows. Win98 again ?Can someone else with Win98 confirm this ?

rafi Posted March 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Here is the test sequence for it: 1. check option .!uT 2. exit uT 3. run uT 4. try file->open now (fails) 5. uncheck/check .uT option 6. try open now - it worksopening of DLing file IS OK if you define the use of .!uT extension and associate a previewer for it ( I use avipreview) . For those users that do not use .uT extension - you can add a "preview with..." right-click menu item and let users define their previewer in the options...Edit: This some times does work, and some other times - does not...

splintax Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Hm. Well, if the file has the !ut extension, then it's incomplete (µT only appends this extension to incomplete files). Therefore, µTorrent's diagnosis is correct: "... the file might not have been properly downloaded.."Can you screenshot the dialog? It seems that µT might just refuse to open files if they're incomplete. Otherwise, I don't know how it knows whether or not a file is "corrupt".

rafi Posted March 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Since I find myself is a weird position, where I feel that you guys do not believe the facts, here are the evidence. Again, as far as I can tell, sometimes it does not happen. I cannot say exactly when. And especially for you, splintax, since u like movies ... I made a special clip showing how a !ut file IS being opened from uT by the avipreview utility I associated with it - a nice undocumented feature... don't you think ? As I said all other files (in this example - avi, rar etc. - are not being opened from uT (see the second clip). Locally - they are being opened OK .I guessed that the problem has to do with the !ut extension, but it can be something else, like some error files' association "confusing" uT ... BTW - another small glitch in uT - the selected file in the files' tab - is NOT being shown as selected (highlighted/grayed) when uT Window is not focused, and another program is being opened by it...Clips are here:http://s35.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0765YCAJXTXPN233XFOASVMBKVcensor the content please.Edit: Content censored...

Badsecurityforum Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 I wanted to report this also.There is this error whenever i try to open a complete file from a torrent that never was active since start of uTorrent.The solution is to start the torrent (and stop again). Then the files open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
