Help! I have no idea what to do next!

[Tamir21]

Hi I have only downloaded utorrent only recently, and this is my first torrent download so I was wondering if someone more experericened with the software could advise me?

Ok so here's the situation, I have set up a torrent to download and it say it is at 100% complete (download) and has automatically gone into seeding mode or whatever, now here's my problem

If I want to use the files I've downloaded how do I do, do I have to stop the seeding or what?

This may seem a stupid question but I was expecting some 'press finish' button or something (which obviously didn't happen) and since I have spent 3 days downloading this file I don't want to delete it or corrupt the files etc.... so what do I do? Do I just press the red stop button or is there some proceedure I don't know about?

Thank you for any help

Yours Tamir

Since you seem new to BitTorrent, try reading these...

Especially read the last one, with the section "What to do After the Torrent Finishes Downloading" in it.

So to make this absolutely final, to access my files I just press the red stop button and then I can play them no worries?

You should be able to play them without stopping them in µTorrent...IF they're really 100% downloaded.

@Tamir21: Yah, basically. The thing is, if possible, and if you haven't already reached it, it's more corteous to continue uploading until you reach a ratio of approximately 1.0 or greater.
