Testing

[trkr4life]

it says its seeding

[Kevin4fm]

@trkr4life OK. If you have your original torrent added to qB, delete the torrent. Make sure you don't have "Delete files" checked as well, though it should be seeing no files to delete anyway.

Make sure you've turned off automatic starting of files. I think for that you need to make sure "Do not start the download automatically" is unchecked. That's under Tools | Preferences.

Then simply start the torrent you've downloaded in the same way as you do any other, probably just by double clicking the .torrent file. That should open the popup I pasted an image of earlier.

Do a screenshot of that, and post that here.

@trkr4life Ah, OK. Did you force recheck it, or just have it start straight away? I've added it, and it's downloading a bit, but still shows no seeders.

[trkr4life]

so how do i get the seeders to show?

[Kevin4fm]

@trkr4life It's a little weird. You're definitely seeding, or I wouldn't be able to grab it, but it should now be showing one seeder. More than one soon, as I've only got one or two minutes to go.

It would really help to see a screenshot with the torrent selected and, maybe, the "General" tab.

ok hold on

@trkr4life Ok. First, are you absolutely sure this is the new torrent? Not the one you created? It looks like it's the wrong one because the info here doesn't match up to what it should.

Secondly, is this file, perhaps, one you previously snatched from here as part of a multi-file torrent, that has since been deleted? There's a very small possibility that someone else snatched that too, and is seeding this, because it doesn't look like you are.

Feel free to send me a direct message, if you'd rather not answer in public!

no its my torrent i made it

[trkr4life]

i have to go for about an hour or so but will be back i appreciate the help

[Kevin4fm]

@trkr4life I understand, but that doesn't answer the second question I asked.

You need to delete that torrent. JUST the torrent, not any files. Highlight the torrent "downloaded" in the list, right click it, then make sure "Also remove the files" is UNchecked. Then click "Remove" (1)

Then make sure all the filters on the left are set to "All" so the list shows ALL of your torrents. (2-5). Then type "downloaded" into the filter at (6). This will just check you don't have another torrent for the same thing. You could, because the one that you would download is not the same as the one you uploaded. If you have one, delete it - again the torrent ONLY.

Then, download the torrent from the site. DON'T use one you downloaded earlier, or may have done, or is your original. Delete all of those .torrent files from your system, and download a new one. Then go through the steps I outlined earlier. Once it's set to manual, launch the torrent, and continue the steps.

I should be around when you get back, though I may not be staring at this waiting for you to post something. Once you've got my attention though, we should be fine.

i did delete the file and tried it again as per your second question now i will try what you have here next

[trkr4life]

reupload everything on this forum too then?

[Kevin4fm]

@trkr4life So what do you have right now. No "downloaded" related torrents in qB, and the new torrent file ready to go? Not sure what you mean by "everything in this forum".

[trkr4life]

i deleted the torrent then made a new one and downloaded it on Qbittorant

[Kevin4fm]

@trkr4life What do you mean by "made a new one"? Made another torrent either in qB or using the site's torrent maker?

[trkr4life]

i did nothing on here yet

[Kevin4fm]

@trkr4life I need to understand what you meant by "made a new one".

[trkr4life]

i made another torrent in Qb
