3.2.0 alpha but I was using the 3.1.12 a few weeks ago and it also didn't seem to have the select/highlight file on open folder feature.

I downloaded the alpha cause on github it had a post that said it was added into the alpha, but it doesn't seem to work for me.

Download the RC1 available on the forum. If it still doesn't work, explain step-by-step what you're doing. And if you're using multifile torrents.

I downloaded the RC1 from here: http://www.fosshub.com/qBittorrent.html (qBittorrent Windows unstable - 10.56 MB | version: 3.2.0RC1_20150502_bf463d4)

Right-Click > Open destination folder on single file torrents and it does not select/highlight the file. It just opens the download folder with no selected files, so need to scan through the files to find what I just downloaded.

edit: I found it, it works if I select the torrent and then go to the content tab, select the file and right-click > Open containing folder but not if I do it directly from download status. Any way to make it work from the torrents directly instead of going through the content tab?

Nope. the task list context menu does not 'know' which file in the payload you actually want to select.

But its only one file in the 'payload' it has no other option to choose.

Because the 2 options are different. One is open destination folder and the other is open containing folder.
