tonybox Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Hi, I'm fairly new to uttorent and am hoping someone can help. I was using version 1.1.4 and my download was listed as complete. I transferred the file to myother pc which has a dvd burner to burn to dvd and then erased from the hard drive from both computers. When I tried to use the file with winrar I got several error messages. It appears I was a victim of version 1.1.4's bug of reporting the file 100% complete when in fact it is not. My question is, is there any way to get the file to resume from where it was, or just to download the files that are reported as corrupt. I have burnt the files to dvd and put them back in the same folder they were downloaded to, but utorrent still does not report the download and allow me to resume. As such I had to start ALL OVER AGAIN!! :cry: If anyone can help I would be EXTREMELY appreciative. ThanksOh...by the way I have since upgraded to version 1.1.5...GREAT CLIENT!!

That is what I tried earlier, I put the file back into the torrent folder and then told utorrent to put new torrents in and dave torrent to that folder. Utorrent know I previously downloaded the file because it says I have downloaded and uploaded several gigs, but it starts at 0%. Has anyone done this successfully, am i maybe doing something wrong. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appus Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 You have to show the parent Directory..Eg: If the torrent folder is Somethingand if it is created under D:You should Show D: While pointing .. If you point D:Something ,it may create a folder under that..hope this helps appus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nekulturniy Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Place the torrent in "Stopped" status, right-click on it, select "Force Re-Check." It should recognize the previous file data after it's done with the hash checking (assuming that you've put it in the right folder as appus mentioned).
