Having to force to start downloading

[jnieurzyla]

I am having to force download start of every file, I tried just start, but it would sit for hours, something that never used to happen. I think its a options setting up procedure that's causing this.

Any Ideas???

[DreadWingKnight]

Is there any message in your status bar?

[jnieurzyla]

No messages at all,

[DreadWingKnight]

Screenshot of your main uTorrent window then please.

[jnieurzyla]

I have got the images, but do not know how to send them to you?? sorry

[DreadWingKnight]

upload them to imageshack and link them here.

[jnieurzyla]

sorry for the delay, i had to set this up

[DreadWingKnight]

And I can't see anything in there.

[jnieurzyla]

So I guess it must be the way I have set up the options, every torrent site gives different ideas of what they say is best, is there a default settings for these, that should cover most sites??

[DreadWingKnight]

I can't see your screenshot, nor do I know what your options are.

[jnieurzyla]

Ok, Thank you anyway.

[DreadWingKnight]

So you're going to be un-cooperative and not provide proper screenshots or a list of your settings?

Upload your screenshot to http://imageshack.us/ and just post the direct link.

[jnieurzyla]

That will be a screen shots of each page?? unless there is a specific page i can upload? there are so many in options

A capture of the main window (click on the Trackers tab before) with all the torrent job list.

Is this ok?

[DreadWingKnight]

No, it's still a thumbnail, not a full screenshot.

I am also having the same problem that the OP describes, but I feel I can be more descriptive and share screenshots a little better.

I'm running Win7 64 with utorrent 2.2.1, I noticed the problem even after a fresh install with default settings. I tweaked some of the settings (anything that looked relevant) and everything still starts queued (though I can force start them). Just before the above screenshot I enabled the "show a window that displays the files inside the torrent" option, and inside that pop-up window the box is checked for "start torrent", I hit OK, and it's queued. Under "UI settings" subsection "when adding torrents" the check box "don't start the download automatically" is not checked.

Let me know if you need more info or screenshots, and I appreciate any help.

To help you a bit with screenshots, try this:

1. Select the uTorrent window.

2. Hold down Alt and press the print screen button. This snaps a picture of just that window. If you want to take a picture of the whole screen, just print screen is fine.

3. Open Paint.

4. Paste (either via ctrl+v or the edit -> paste option)

5. Save somewhere you can find it and give it a name.

6. Go to http://imgur.com/ and upload

7. Copy one of the share links on the left side.

8. Paste the link here and profit!

cm83, yours is not the same issue as is going on in the thread. Take a look at preferences - bandwidth.

Nice! That fixed it, thanks for the tip DreadWingKnight. I'm a little sad I didn't notice that myself Now the next question is... why was that enabled by default?

[DreadWingKnight]

It wasn't. Someone had to turn it on.

[jnieurzyla]

Is this better??

[DreadWingKnight]

You're STILL giving us the thumbnail and not the full image.

You will have to give me an idiots guide on how to take and display it,, I followed the previous instructions to the letter for the screenshot above given by cm33, how do I improve it, so it will display you what you require?
