<![CDATA[Finished file showing as leeching and blocking download slots]]>Hi,

Two torrents I finished downloading quite a while ago are still showing as leeching and clog the downloading queue. Since I currently only have to downloading slots I can't do anything anymore.

Do you have any suggestion how I convert these two torrents to seeding torrents? uTorrent already shows them as seeding..

Thanks for your help.

This will take up one of your download slots. There's no way around this other than to remove this torrent from your active torrent list, but that also means that you won't be able to seed to other users and get credit for that.

It takes about an hour to clear your stats ...
If your download is not 100 % completed then this means you are seeding while leeching ...
