James5098 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Hi,Last night i accidently unplugged the computer whilst it was on (long story but it happened), utorrent was also open at this time when the computed was unplugged. I restarted my computer now utorrent seems to have a problem. All of my torrents have the seeding status in red. Also something that was half way through downloading is now red and will not continue to download. I also tried to start a new download and that will not start either. I have tried closing down utorrent and restarting the application to no avail. It is almost as if utorrent has locked itself from any downloads or uploads. Has anyone else has this happen to them or does anyone know who to fix the issue?Thanks in advance for any help. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
