rafi Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Here is something you can try to see if it helps to avoid this error:In preference directories, and the prefix \\?\ to all your paths. This could overcome issues with Windows not handling long path/file names. For now it will not work if you are using the "Add Torrent" dialogue, so to bypass that you need to disable Pref.->UI->"Show options to change the name and location..." and better enable "Don't start the download automatically". It might take effect only for new torrents, though. Let me know if this helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
