Default Need Explanation To Unhashed Files, Etc

I am new to BearShare file sharing. I have 3 questions:

1. Once I have finished downloading a file, progress shows "Moving". I cannot clear that file. Why?

2. What are unhashed files? I have loads of them.

3. I also have loads of unshared files, yet I have indicated that I want to share them?

Thanks.

The only files that you can clear are those that are finished
or those that failed. Anything that is still in progress,
whether waiting, transferring or moving, has to be cancelled
before you can clear it.

BearShare has to create a hash number for each file
before sharing it. If the third light in the upper right corner
of BearShare is blinking yellow then hashing is still in
progress and the files will be shared as they are completed.

On the other hand, if there is no hashing going on and
finished downloads never get moved from the temp folder
to the downloads folder, you probably don't have access
permissions to the folders involved.

Download this tool and see if it fixes your access problem:

If you still have problems post the report it makes and
we'll try to figure out what else to do.
