To restart seeding a torrent which is removed from the torrent client program
- You need the existing torrent from GayTorrent - download again from the reseed request link if you lost the .torrent file
and
- You need the movie file you've got already - if you don't have the movie, reseed is not possible
To reseed:
- Make sure your uTorrent has the following options enabled:
Settings > Downloads > When adding a torrent > Display the content and some options - Then open the .torrent file in uTorrent to view the download options window
- As the "download destination" folder, select the folder where you have the movie
- If you renamed the original filename, right click on the file in the download list (right hand side) and select Rename to match the file name on your computer, or rename the file in your own folder with the original file name.
- Uncheck start torrent option and click OK to close the window.
- The torrent then should be added to your downloads list. Now, right click on it and select force recheck.
- If the file name and size matches the original torrent file, the status will be 100% Completed after the recheck.
- Right click on the list item again to select Resume, this time the status should change to Seeding
Congratulations, now you're reseeding a torrent!

@MeowMixxx511 Got a message asking for a reseed?
- Go to the page of the requested torrent and download it again
- Open the .torrent file inside your client and check the contents

- See if it contains only a single file or a folder with more than one file
- Make sure you have all the files that are being requested
Found all the files? Here's how to proceed:
- If the torrent contains only a single file: Set the download path to the exact directory where where the file is located.
- If the torrent contains a folder with multiple files: Set the download path to the exact directory where the folder is located.
After setting the download path to the correct directory, you can start the torrent. If everything is right, the client will start checking the files and start seeding. If it starts at 0% and fails to check, you have set the wrong download path.
After checking, if all files are found, it will start seeding and you have successfully fulfilled a reseed request! What you get in return??? A pat in the back from me, yay!
