Tips & Tricks Errors in seeding uTorrent [A solution]

[juanamm]

Has it happened to anyone that when using uTorrent you see some torrents that are not seeded and are marked in red?

I found a solution that worked for me (I don't know if it will work for all cases).

In this solution it is NOT necessary to download the files again (if we already have them downloaded).
The .torrent files and the corresponding downloaded files (rar, zip, exe, iso, etc) must be together.


1. right click on the torrent with problems
2. choose "Advanced" from the context menu and then "Set Download Location"

3. Navigate to the folder where the .torrent file and the data file (rar, zip, exe, iso, etc) to share are located.
4. The system will ask if we want to overwrite and we confirm "Yes".

5. Again we right click on the same file with problems and choose "Start".

6. Finally we right click on the same file and choose "Force Start".

7. Result:

sometimes the status show seeding but the color is red, just a right-click and updating the tracker does the job.

Updating trackers underneath advanced option does the job most of the times also

Your solution was useful for another case, since I tried it with some torrents in red and I had that command disabled in the context menu.
