  1. Part of file missing soon after torrent download finishes


    I download a lot of torrents from the internet. Never had a problem till recently. Now whenever I download repacks or other torrents, small parts of the largest file always goes missing soon after the download. The downloading resumes at 99% after I force recheck everytime. I have tried disabling windows defender and even did a clean install of windows. The issue still persists. Please find me a solution to this issue. I have tried almost all of the solutions available in the web.Thanks in advance!

    :)

    Default App for Downloading torrent files

    George

    You say a right click produces 'Open in New Tab' . . . are you right clicking the magnet file on a page in your web browser?

    You need to download the torrent file to the downloads folder on your PC

    Then right click the torrent file on your PC and follow the steps above

    You are correct uTorrent or BitTorrent will not show up in the list of Default Apps because that is not really installed on your PC like a conventional App, it is simply copied to the folder I listed above when you install it

    Hi George

    Download a magnet file

    Right click that .torrent file and choose 'Open With' - Choose Another App

    Check the box marked 'Always use this app to open .torrent . . .'

    If uTorrent is not in the list, scroll to the bottom and click 'More Apps'

    Again if uTorrent is not in the list, at the bottom, click 'Look for another app on this PC', then navigate to find the uTorrent executable, as far as I know it is located in this folder:

    (On the View Ribbon in File Explorer, tick the 'Hidden Items' box and replace YourName in this location)

    C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent

    Default App for Downloading torrent files

    I download magnet torrent files from EZTV and other torrent sites. A right click produces only the window options to open window in new tab, etc. There is no option to "Open with". So I'm still stuck with only the left click option to "Open uTorrent".

    Further, while uTorrent is listed as an app in some places in windows, it is NOT listed as an app in the "Set Default Apps" window. There should be some way to fix this. But I can't find it.
