ciaobaby Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 As the name implies, it makes the data in [whatever] encrypted so the data is unreadable [by humans] without decrypting itEncryption:The obfuscation (concealing) of data behind seemingly random data in order to hide its true identity.

ciaobaby Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 The files on both end are of the same size but the MD5s vary. Absolutely NOTHING to do with encrypting the meta data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncej Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 How does the reciever decrypt it?I am also interested in knowing how to decrypt the files/directories once downloaded. I cannot find documentation on this feature anywhere, and there are no obvious settings in uTorrent for file decryption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 I am also interested in knowing how to decrypt the files/directories once downloaded.The downloaded data (Payload) is NOT encrypted, it is only the metadata in the .torrent file that is encrypted.

ncej Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 The downloaded data (Payload) is NOT encrypted, it is only the metadata in the .torrent file that is encrypted.Ok, so how does one decrypt the metadata?I guess the underlying question is, "why does that feature exist if there is no obvious way to use a file that has been shared using it?"
