Peleus Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 I have a torrent that needs to be checked due to a previous crash. uTorrent always crashes when that torrent gets at or near 100% checked. If I pause, stop or delete the torrent then uTorrent will crash and it will still be there when I turn uTorrent back on. If I delete the torrent file or the download file when uTorrent is off then when I turn it back on it says "DHT: Waiting to log in" at the bottom, waits a moment and then crashes.I am running uTorrent 3.2.3 on Windows 7.Is there any way that I can remove this one misbehaved torrent without removing the 60 or so other torrents that I have?

ciaobaby Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Download Bencode, stop utorrent, backup, resume.dat, open resume.dat in Bencode, delete the entry, save the file, restart uTorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peleus Posted December 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Thank you, BEncode was exactly what I needed.I ended up having to also remove a second torrent with a similar name but once both were gone, problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goo44 Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Thank you Ciaobaby, BEncode fixed my issue too.For newbies:you’ll need to find and edit your µTorrent’s RESUME.DAT file, which is located in your %appdata%\uTorrent directory. To find thisclick Start > Run (or type Run in windows 8) enter that line: %appdata%\uTorrentPress enter.A folder will open, the resume.dat file is in there. Copy/paste it somewhere safe as a backup. Then take another copy on desktop.Open BEncode. File->open->resume.dat (the copied one located at desktop)You will see some entries. Delete the ones causing the problem. File->Save. Now take your modified resume.dat file from desktop, and move it back in the in your %appdata%\uTorrent directory.Done! You can now also delete the backup resume.dat .
