Rejected Ninja Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 I am running Bittorrent 7.10 build 43917. Two week ago I had a problem where BT would not see the D drive on my system and said something to the effect of volume not mountable. Although the drive was mountable and I could see the files, BT would not download anything. After several reboots I thought this issue was resolved. Tonight I get Error: Can't open torrent file: path and file name. I am fairly new at this BT thing but know systems. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have attached a screen shot. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 select all torrents, then right-click and force re-checks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rejected Ninja Posted August 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 (edited) I have 91 files, I did what you suggested, I see no change in the error. Does this take some time? I closed and re-opened BT to refresh, same screen as original submission. Please advise when you can.

Harold Feit Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 You're probably going to need to remove and re-add the torrents then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rejected Ninja Posted August 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 to confirm - delete and re-download them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Only remove the torrent and re-add. Don't delete the data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rejected Ninja Posted August 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Ok, not to such a newbie, remove it in BT, but then will BT know if I try to download the same torrent ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Removing and re-adding the torrent without deleting the partial files will allow bittorrent to check the partial files before continuing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
