Re: Torrent file only checks up to 99.9%?

I've had the same problem in the past when trying to help someone out. From a techy standpoint I can't answer this question.

What I have found is that once I've archived a group of files, and then gone back to them (to help out) they don't check to 100%. The only thing I can think off (other than a file being changed) is that the particular file not completely checking is corrupt either when downloaded (it may be that that file has not hashed correctly - just a guess) OR during the transfer something happened to corrupt the file in question.

Also; the checksum may have been created when the file was already corrupt.

Sorry for the "no answer" answer.
