Diskspace Used up by Torrents

Post by Raynizzle1691 »

Hello, i've noticed while downloading torrents that the downloading files usually take up the same amount of disk space while being downloaded as being 100%. So it made me think that it may be possible that there could be unfinished forgotten downloads on my computer taking up space.

I was wondering if it's possible to search for these files and delete them?

Depends on which Torrent interface you're using. I use uTorrent and it puts completed in 1 file and uncompleted in a different one. It should be in the options or settings somewhere and will tell you where the folders it uses are.

Yes i'm aware of that, but I was wondering that there may be FORGOTTEN unfinished torrents somewhere around my computer that aren't in the torrent folder. They may be taking up precious space.

Just go searching threw your computer, use Ccleaner and scan your computer for old files that are not needed.

after that go around right click on all your main folders etc looking for which one has the most **** in it and repeat till you find the folders you are looking to delete.
