This folder is being used starting with v1. Saves data of pieces where the file ends within a transferred piece, if the user is only downloading some, but not all of the files in a torrent. Refer to FAQ for more info. Users can switch the configuration folder of BitComet using this option. When people refer to torrent files generally, it's understood that they are referring to files with the.
It's customary, but not required, for the filename of the torrent file to reflect the content it references. The filename may also contain information about how the content is encoded or archived, and who created it. This information can be very important, but is beyond the scope of this Wiki to explain. For example, the filename above indicates that the torrent is version 9.
ISO format suitable for burning to an optical disk. Torrent files can be read by a person , but they aren't very interesting. You can open one in Notepad and take a look at it but don't try to save any changes you make. They're mostly a bunch of base numbers. They provide the data that a BitTorrent client needs in order to begin downloading the torrent contents — the software, or video, or audio content that you wish to download.
Index sites provide torrent files. Trackers are used by BitTorrent clients to facilitate transferring data. You should visit some index sites and spend some time familiarizing yourself with how they are organized. BitComet uses a built-in web browser, based on Microsoft's Internet Explorer v.
Clicking on the site name will open it in the browser for you. BitComet also has a built-in torrent search bar for you to search for your needed. You are not required to use the built-in browser, and can use your own web browser, if you prefer. You can bookmark index sites in it just as you bookmark any web site. You can use the options in the VIEW menu to make these windows hidden or visible, as you prefer.
There are also web-based search engines and stand-alone search applications which can search multiple index sites with a single interface. You may want to explore these as well. It is possible to open the file directly into BitComet without saving the file to disk first, but that is discouraged because you may need the torrent file again at some point, which means you will have to find it and re-download it from wherever you got it the first time.
It must be the same torrent file, with the same hash index. See the answer to the question above. If any task is starving for upstream bandwidth, then you will find few or no peers willing to transfer to or from you.
Generally, all of your tasks should receive a bare minimum of 8 Kilobytes per second of upload bandwidth. Any less, and running that task is essentially a waste of your time. It should be as much above 8 as you can manage. If you have any tasks that routinely drop below this, you are trying to run too many. For most people, most typical home broadband connections, start with one downloading and one seeding task, and let them stabilize.
Most connections can't handle any more than these two. Try adding one more task and let it stabilize. If any tasks drop below the limit you've chosen remember, higher than 8 , then that's one task too many. The more upstream you give to any task, the better the performance is going to be.
It's going to download faster. Please read the video download instructions for details. A little introduction: BitComet writes its Task List whenever there is a change in the task list or when it exits into a file named downloads.
Which place, depends on the version of BitComet and your operating system. Windows Vista and later versions deprecate storing information in that tree i.
Therefore, starting with version 1. But this should happen only for clean installations of BitComet; for upgrades over an existing version the default behavior of the client is to seek the configuration files and use the previous location for further storing them. For more detailed info on the conditions when this happens see this topic.
Also, starting with v. Now, be sensible about this. If this is a new installation, yes, of course the files will be in those locations. When you install a new version of BC over the old version, it keeps all of the old settings including this one. When BC starts up again it tries to read this file and loads the tasklist from downloads.
Anything that interferes with any part of the whole write-read sequence, will generate these kinds of problems. If the file can't be written, then old, deleted tasks will still be in it and also the newly added ones won't be added in it.
If it's missing or empty then BC can't read what isn't there. If your system or BitComet crashes before writing into the file, any changes made to it will be lost or the entire file may become corrupted.
Sometimes, even a version update may result in a missing tasks file. Also, a Windows upgrade may often result in problems with the tasks file, due to the data virtualization feature of the newer operating systems. If BC is running under an account that lacks permission to do any of these things, there can be problems. Therefore, if you haven't done any upgrades of your client or Windows OS then always first:. Do not add or delete any tasks.
Doing that WILL make method 2 below, useless for reasons we trust are obvious , and it will interfere with the others;. Tip: If this your permissions on the file change happens frequently, you are recommended to update your BitComet to the latest version or manually backup the tasklist as a precautionary measure. But as a definitive fix, you should make sure that nothing interferes with BitComet's writing permissions on the file. Make sure BC is stopped.
If you don't know what that means, then you should copy all of the contents of one to the other, and then reinstall the version of BitComet that you just installed, again. But you really should learn what it means and do that. Export the tasklist and optionally, global program settings into a. This might be easier observed when you have no tasks running or you have a single task running in BitComet. The usual places where one can observe this different speeds, are: BitComet's title bar , Floating Window and the Statistics tab.
If you have no tasks running and still, you can see some small traffic reported in these areas, then it means that you are seeing numbers which account for the overhead protocol traffic which BitComet uses for operating i. If you see higher upload speeds and still have no tasks running or you do have something running but the speeds you see for your task s in the Task List pane are different from the ones you can see in the other areas, then you should know that the upload speeds reported in the Task List pane are just those used for BitTorrent uploading.
In the rest of the areas, BitComet adds to those speeds the LT-Seeding speeds as well and the overhead traffic. Therefore the total speeds you will see might differ more or less from the sum of the speeds of all tasks in the Task List pane.
This problem has been fixed since version 1. First of all, go into the options and look at the Advanced tab. The account you usually run BitComet under - normally your own - should own the directory and files, and have full control of both. All rights reserved. License Privacy policy Terms of use.

This is set to as default, and the value range is bytes. Users who know what they are doing may set this as they see fit. Value range: By default, it is set to enabled True. It only works if the ISP's servers support it. When BitComet finds any change in downloaded files at start-up, it will do a hash-check automatically, ensuring the download to proceed normally.
This option controls whether a hash check rescan of the file's completion is performed when downloading has finished. Sometimes, rechecking at the completion of a task helps the user know whether the downloaded file can be used or not.
But as this may take longer, it is disabled by default. Users may enable it according to their own need. By default, this is set to be True. User can change this value if needed. Here 0 equals unlimited. It's recommended to keep the default setting, for ordinary users. True by default. Please note: max connecting connections is not the same as max connections. The former means connection initiated not established yet by local myself per second. The latter means connections already established between the local peer myself and the remote other peers irrespective of the initiator of the connection.
It normally defaults to Note: Theoretically, the shorter the socket start interval is, the faster a new task will be downloaded. This options enables certain hidden options in BitComet's GUI in order to help debugging various program issues that may appear. This option also enables the user to move, at a later time, the configuration files from one folder to the other.
