huntsman Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Hi All - Is there any way to prevent torrents being lost in BitTorrent? I have twice had a power failure and twice my torrents have gone from say, 81 to zero % when the power resumed, a loss of weeks of downloading.Is there not some kind of 'resume' facility?Thanks!

Harold Feit Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 There is resume capability, but the power failure you're dealing with is causing it to not work right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntsman Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Ah - Is there no way to avoid this? I live in a country where the government often cuts power... Thanks for the reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Battery backup that lasts long enough for a graceful shutdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntsman Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Thanks, but limited application as we get no warnings. I've had power failures many times before the last upgrade and never lost anything, but now it seems to have changed. Nothing I can try in the 'Settings'?

Harold Feit Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Nope. And the battery backup gives you a lot more application than you'd think because it has a near-0 reaction time on switching to the internal battery from the utility power.
