      Hello,
      I sometimes see the message "You have already downloaded this file but have not snatched it yet"
      What does this mean and how do I go about "Snatching" my torrent?

      Thanks in advance for your help

        I think it's fair to say that this means you downloaded the .torrent file… but you never fully downloaded the entire CONTENTS of what was referenced in that .torrent file.

        Skipping portions of the .torrent offerings could result in this occurring.

        Upon 100% completion of a download, your Torrent Client program reports back to our Tracker Server that you've successfully downloaded, AKA "snatched", that file.

        Considering (at least the AMERICAN vulgar meaning of "snatch") I've never personally much cared for that term we use here, as you could say I'm not what you'd consider a big fan of women's vaginas, eh?  :afr:

          I never thought of it in that manner until you pointed it out.  :funny2: :funny2: :funny2:

                I have quite a few files show up as snatched but not downloaded, even though they are seeding. Not sure whats going on.
