![]() ![]() It will open a DOS shell, already navigated to the folder you want to be in. So all you need to do in Windows is locate the folder you want to be in when shelling over to DOS, right click it, and select Open Command Window Here. It will add a feature to your right-click context menus that says Open Command Window Here. ![]() Download the XP Powertoy called Command Here. DISABLE LIMEWIRE FIRST.Įasiest thing to do, assuming you are running XP is this. IT JUST OCCUURED TO ME THAT LIMEWIRE COULD BE HOLDING ON TO THIS FILE, WHICH MAY BE WHY YOU CANNOT DELETE. NOTE: BEFORE YOU DO THIS, MAKE SURE THAT LIMEWIRE IS NOT RUNNING, EVEN IN THE BACKGROUND. Then it is just "delete evilfile.avi" right? Well kinda, but could you tell me the right path to type in DOS?Ĭ:\Documents and Settings\John Smith\My Documents\Downloads\zMedia\IncompleteĪnd uh also how would I get the dos name of the really long file? I won't post here cause of the curse/sex words in it, I'll PM if you give the okay. I covered the file name cause of the words in it. When I right click, it won't even give me the option to delete it!ĭoes XP still have some type of DOS command prompt and does it still have the delete function (I don't think i'll be able to path in the path if I can do it that way ) Any ideas? Even the MoveOnBoot program didn't take it out! (It says " invalid file name" when I selete it to be deleted on bootup) It got rid of two of the AVI files but left one (image below). Same error! I then tired Ultrawipe my ace in the hole for deleting files. So I booted in safe mode (that way making sure the program whatever it was, was not running) and tried to delete it. ![]() Then a write-protect/files in use error came up. After realizeding that the partly downloaded filed were porn files. I moved the entire folder to my download folder with no problem (I can't move it ever since). I came across a folder called incomplete which seemed to hold partly downloaded files. ![]() I installed LimeWire (newest version) After downloading a few files I thought I canceled some that were not what they said they were (porn and like words in the filename). Yes it can be an incomplete torrent, but in my experience forcing it to Re-Check solves it more often than not.Okay, I've tried everything, and googled for the answer. What is happening, which I hypothesize might happen with very, very fast download speeds, is the torrent accumulates a small (less than 1 MiB) discrepancy between the stated % complete and the actual amount (usually in KiB) left, and doing what I said forces it to realize this and readjust itself. Torrent is at 99.9% and also shows 512 KiB are left to download (assuming you show the "Remaining" column)… Stop, Force Re-Check, Start, it "resynchronizes" and now shows only 64 KiB remaining, at which point it downloads those final 64 KiB and terminates successfully. Here's a made up example that nonetheless resembles a situation I've had a few times, albeit not necessarily with the same numbers: Out of all the times I've had a torrent stop at 99.x%, far more often than not it's not because pieces are missing, it's because the torrent needs to be "recalibrated", so to speak. You don't have to wait for Force Re-Check to finish before doing Start. Before assuming it's incomplete, when you get 99.9% or 99.8% try this: ![]()
