Hi all,

In older versions of bitorrent, when you open a .torrent file it would give you a box with all the files in it, where you could un check boxes and only download specific files.

the newer versions of bitorrent no longer seem to have this feature, and its really annoying. Does anyone know how to download specific files in a torrent?, and make the check / un-check box appear?

thanks
 
Switch to uTorrent ?

aLternatively is there not an option int he download file section to prioritise certain pieces or even say include/dont include in DL ?
 
Most clients allow you to specify Skip/Do Not Download in the file section after adding it.

uTorrent will allow you to do it from the start when adding the file. (assuming you did not check the option to not display the window!)
 
might have to use utorrent instead then, bitorrent used to have the feature, very handy, but no more

thanks anyway
 
I am clicking on the magnet links, but if I click on 'get torrent' buttons on another site, it still doesn't come up
 
Got it sorted now, just had to change the 'toggle torrent view' and now it asks me where to save and I can select the files I want :)

Thanks
