tcm13 Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 This is a recent problem, one I've not had in many years of BitTorrent use. When I try to remove a torrent from the application using the remove button, it deletes the downloaded file and the torrent file which are located in different locations. Nothing has been changed, makes no difference if the file is seeding, stopped or paused, it deletes the entry and file. This started some hours ago and I've checked the settings and Windows settings. BitTorrent Pro 7.9.9 on Windows 10 Pro all updates current. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 in advanced, what is gui.default_del_action set to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcm13 Posted March 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 Hi, gui.default_del_action is set to *3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 The actual default of that setting is 0. 3 corresponds to the "Remove and Delete .torrent and data" function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcm13 Posted March 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 Thanks. That seems to have fixed it. No idea how that value got changed. Though it seems my security suite (Kaspersky Total) has been changing settings without prompting. Time to change. Thank you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcm13 Posted March 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 My settings seem to change to *3 from *0, by its self ever 10 to 15 days. Any idea why? I've changed from Kaspersky to Bitdefender hoping to a avoid this scenario, also checking the log files; no evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 No idea what keeps causing your settings to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
