If the file can't be written, then old, deleted tasks will still be in it and also the newly added ones won't be added in it. If it's missing or empty then BC can't read what isn't there. If your system or BitComet crashes before writing into the file, any changes made to it will be lost or the entire file may become corrupted. Sometimes, even a version update may result in a missing tasks file. Also, a Windows upgrade may often result in problems with the tasks file, due to the data virtualization feature of the newer operating systems.
If BC is running under an account that lacks permission to do any of these things, there can be problems. Therefore, if you haven't done any upgrades of your client or Windows OS then always first:. Do not add or delete any tasks. Doing that WILL make method 2 below, useless for reasons we trust are obvious , and it will interfere with the others;.
Tip: If this your permissions on the file change happens frequently, you are recommended to update your BitComet to the latest version or manually backup the tasklist as a precautionary measure. But as a definitive fix, you should make sure that nothing interferes with BitComet's writing permissions on the file. Make sure BC is stopped. If you don't know what that means, then you should copy all of the contents of one to the other, and then reinstall the version of BitComet that you just installed, again.
But you really should learn what it means and do that. Export the tasklist and optionally, global program settings into a. This might be easier observed when you have no tasks running or you have a single task running in BitComet. The usual places where one can observe this different speeds, are: BitComet's title bar , Floating Window and the Statistics tab. If you have no tasks running and still, you can see some small traffic reported in these areas, then it means that you are seeing numbers which account for the overhead protocol traffic which BitComet uses for operating i.
If you see higher upload speeds and still have no tasks running or you do have something running but the speeds you see for your task s in the Task List pane are different from the ones you can see in the other areas, then you should know that the upload speeds reported in the Task List pane are just those used for BitTorrent uploading.
In the rest of the areas, BitComet adds to those speeds the LT-Seeding speeds as well and the overhead traffic. Therefore the total speeds you will see might differ more or less from the sum of the speeds of all tasks in the Task List pane. This problem has been fixed since version 1.
First of all, go into the options and look at the Advanced tab. The account you usually run BitComet under - normally your own - should own the directory and files, and have full control of both.

Why is the speed displayed in the Task List for my task s , different from the ones BitComet shows in other areas? What shall I do when BitComet failed to save task list and unfinished torrents? How can I transfer all my tasks to another computer? Icons next to my task This red cross basically means that BitComet cannot continue downloading this torrent into your download directory because any of the following reasons : You are trying to download a file over 4G to a FAT32 disk drive.
There is insufficient space on the drive where your Download Directory resides, to save the file s you are trying to download. If the client which shared this torrent has disconnected, and no other sharer has this torrent.
BitComet can't find the download path e. The path to the torrent task's file s contains illegal characters i. You have two or more torrent tasks running, which are trying to write in the same directory a file with the same filename. BitComet can't write to the download folder e. The Download Directory for your BitComet client may be corrupt or your hard disk has suffered a hardware failure resulting in bad sectors which cause write-check to fail.
Read about Torrent Exchange. Switch to Torrent History Torrent Archive in v. If you find it, delete the task from the tasklist without deleting the files, too. Double click the torrent and re-add the task into the tasklist. If you don't find it in the Torrent History Torrent Archive in v. Add it into BitComet and make sure that you select the same folder where your unfinished files are; you'll get a prompt warning you that there are already some unfinished files in there.
Confirm the choice; it will hash-check and pick up where it has left. If you use an external drive for the download folder, make sure it's connected and that it's got assigned the same drive letter. Make sure that Windows recognizes and assigns a drive letter to the hard drive partition where the download folder resides. Make sure the partition was not hidden by some other application.
If it was a mounted partition make sure it is still mounted. If it was a mapped network drive make sure the mapping is permanent. Stop the running tasks and change the download directory for any of the tasks, to another folder. If you don't know which one is that, you can use a tool like Unlocker or Process Explorer to find out the locking process and close the handle for that file or kill the locking process.
Change download directory to another folder, run a file system check and make sure your hardware works fine. Alternatively, you can press:. Add it into your firewall's exception rules. Also, if your firewall also controls the 'ports' used by a program, locate UDP type. Add in exactly the same port used as in your listening port. Once again, this should also be the same as your TCP Port. Make sure your firewall rule updates for use with new versions when you update BitComet.
Better firewalls such as McAfee do this automatically. Alternatively, if you're stuck on a contract with your ISP or do not wish to switch, try out our encryption technology: You can enable this encryption protocol within Bitcomet by following these steps: Open BitComet ensure that its not an old version like 0.
Note: This operation is not necessary anymore for v. So, if you use v. If you're using a version prior to v. Then what can I do about it? Can't I just set my global maximum upload bandwidth to zero and avoid all this?
A little theory first. What can you do to fix this? Next, set the network. This will limit the number of simultaneous TCP connections maintained by BitComet, to whatever value you set for this option, and in turn reduce the number of entries which BitComet may place in the NAT table, by the use of TCP connections.
Another thing you might want to watch out for is the number of simultaneous running tasks BitComet has, since incoming TCP connections and UDP traffic for each additional task cannot be stopped before reaching the router so each different IP source will create a new entry in the NAT table. Starting out with running tasks in total both downloading and seeding might be a good place to begin, along with all the above measures if you encounter this type of issue.

Minimum disk cache size MB : 6MB by default. Maximum disk cache size MB : 50MB by default. Reasonable disk cache setup may lower disk usage. BitComet Intelligent Disk Cache can effectively reduce the fragmentation in file systems. The disk cache is used to keep frequently accessed data in memory in order to reduce the number of read and write operations with the hard-disk. BitComet normally manages the cache automatically, but you may change its behavior by modifying the settings. Shrink disk cache size if free physical memory is lower than MB : 50MB by default.
Freeing physical memory may guarantee users' fluent network access. BitComet will automatically adjust the free physical memory to be more than the minimum required.
Auto choose cache size in the given range : Checked by default. Auto choose cache may greatly avoid memory occupation and in the meantime reduce disk fragmentation.
Enable scheduler : Unchecked by default. If you check this option, settings in the Connection tab will be void. And the download and upload rate will be based on Scheduler.
