aplasticlife Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Every time I exit the program to reboot or logout/in I have to delete and re-add all the torrents from uTorrent's list because it hits me with 'error: cannot load .torrent file'.I know this has something to do with .torrent and .torrent.loaded files and then there is also apparently some other copy that uTorrent creates in the user's appdata folder... but this is getting a bit silly. I have read over old posts but it hasn't helped avoid this in spite of my efforts.I have, from the beginning, kept everything in separate directories. -----These are my settings in Preferences -> DirectoriesPut new downloads in: \TorrentDataScratch\Move completed downloads to: \TorrentDataComplete\Store .torrents in: \ScratchTorrentFile\Move .torrents for finished jobs to: \TorrentCompete\Automatically load .torrents from: \ScratchTorrentFile\And "Delete loaded .torrents" is unchecked.------I have no idea what I am doing wrong!Any help is appreciated.(edited for clarity) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Check the permissions on the .torrent storage locations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplasticlife Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Will do. It takes so long to re-scan all these torrents that it'll likely be a while before I'm back for a follow-up. Got important seeding to do!Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Store .torrents in: \ScratchTorrentFile\Move .torrents for finished jobs to: \TorrentCompete\Automatically load .torrents from: \ScratchTorrentFile\It's your own fault.DO NOT USE THE SAME LOCATION FOR "Store .torrents in" AND "automatically load .torrents from" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplasticlife Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 ciaobaby: double-checked permissions and everything looks good. Thanks!DreadWingKnight: This sounds like interesting advice. Does this mean the solution would be to un-check the 'automatically load torrents from...' box? If so, would this result in seeing a blank torrent list every time I re-start the app? Or would this instead see the existing torrents in the program list stay put and just stop the automatic loading of new torrents in to uTorrent when they hit the specified directory?

DreadWingKnight Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 If you're actually using autoload, uncheck the store .torrents in instead.Autoload isn't needed to reload torrents from previous sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
