Shifroval Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 5-6 minutes after any torrent d/l completes a hidden (magnet) 5 GB file (bigbad.txt) begins to force d/load to the uTorrent share folder. Repeated 3 times since 29678 update. I've stopped and deleted at 3% each time. Anyone else seeing this or have an Idea what it is? http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7294/8734882267_6546a3cdab_o.pnghttp://farm8.staticflickr.com/7294/8734882267_6546a3cdab_o.pngSome time ago you could select to enable a test feature before you install the program, it was called Distributed Share and there is an option for it:distributed_share.enableJust in case I've disabled it and so far no more strange big files with the hidden label.

A fairly nebulous description in the Help file:distributed_share.enable: This option enables the participation in distributed backups 3.3It hasn't recurred since yesterday but I'll disable it for good measure. It sounds useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deo Domuique Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 Uhm... Lately it's working pretty well, as it seems. What changes have been currently made to installer? Because I'd like to install utorrent on another disk, not my primary C. Also, once I saw over 2500 DHT nodes in a relatively small period of time... Was that some kind of error?

Can you let me know how you accomplished this? It really comes in handy.BTW, how did you get build 29678? It wasn't even posted. Today, I was able to upgrade to beta build 29689 via the automatic update feature. Why don't they just release the next beta so everyone can obtain it? I like to keep the installation file on my storage partition, in the downloads/uTorrent/ file, just in case I need to go back to a working beta build in the future/.Thank You.

rafi Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 Lately it's working pretty well.... Great. Any special configuration that you set?What changes have been currently made to installer? Because I'd like to install utorrent on another disk, not my primary C. Just copy the exe to where you want it to be with, with your settings.dat (or an empty one).I like how you have multiple detail windows open in uTorrentUse Photoshop... lol...

ciaobaby Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 It was. It may have been released but it has not yet made it to the delivery system. 29594 is STILL the latest build there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike20021969 Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 29594 is STILL the latest build there.It is, yes.But when a new beta is mentioned in this thread, I always use the link in post #1/page 1:http://www.utorrent.com/downloads/complete/os/win/track/betaBookmark the page (one click to get there and the download pop up starts automatically).That always gets you the latest/current beta, especially if http://www.utorrent.com/downloads/ hasn't been updated for some reason.

But yeah, it is useful I would think that it would take you some time and effort to use Photoshop. I myself wouldn't go through all that trouble. I would just upload screen shots. I don't have time to mess around with Photoshop.Seriously now, can you get uTorrent to display multiple detail windows within uTorrent?Thank You.

It could be a useful GUI option, but better devs concentrate on code which seems improved in the past 2-3 weeks. Or am I delusional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly in both local and appdata paths...I can try (use the older one, then let it update itself).There's nothing in %AppData%\uTorrent, I don't use it. And I want to keep it that way. It's when it finds a new version it want to run the setup guide. Before it just replaced the .exe, like it should.I know how to replace it manually, but would be smoother if it did it by itself.
