Noob question repair torrent

Post by samhandsome »

I've been keeping an old torrent alive but something got screwed up.  I have the original file and I have the original torrent file with the original trackers. 

I hit every button I could find and now it says "[F] Downloading" and the box is empty as if I had 0% when in fact I have 100%.

How do I make it work again?

v4.1.2 windows

Try: force recheck.
When finished then resume.

Where is force recheck? 

I removed the torrent file without "also deleting the files on the hard disk". then I reuploaded it.  I hoped it would fix itself but no.

Do I leave automatic torrent management checked?

I just clicked stuff I already clicked before and somehow it fixed itself.  Yay!  Thx again for the help.

uh for anyone else who may wind up in this boat the "force recheck" option was NOt in the right click tab but I did force resume and toggled automatic torrent management and also a recheck in various combinations.  after a few minutes it started to repair itself on its own.  now that the torrent is seedding it DOES give me the force recheck option.  FWIW.  GL
