This should really be discussed more because I am finding that alot of people are having this happen. No one would think that if it said it was only 64%, it might not finish downloading because it was actually all the way finished. Another person suggested moving the incomplete file or deleting it and restarting, which I did on another problematic file and that fixed THAT problem. Its an odd glitch that causes this thing to happen, where it misreports how much of the file you have...and when I googled I discovered lots of people asking questions about this. Lots of posts with titles like " downloading from 10 hosts at 0kb/s" , so hopefully they can find their way here and hopefully they have the same situation as me so they can get it figured out.
I apologize to whoever that advice came from, I cant remember your name. But Kudos to you anyhow. | Like sleepless said, try an actual torrent client. I use BitTorrent. |
