Torrent File Not Deleted After Adding

Post by monkeylove »

Hello. I am using

Transmission 2.92+ (4f9d9ad2b) for Windows

instead of

Transmission 2.92 early preview for Windows

when accessing Transmission running in a headless Buffalo NAS from a Windows 8.1 PC.

I decided to use the new build because when I added a magnet it would use a drive in the PC for the download folder instead of the NAS.

The nightly build solved that problem but it does not delete a .torrent file after automatically adding it (which the early preview can do).

I am using the Windows desktop version to access Transmission running in a headless NAS.

I checked the following in Preferences / Downloading:

- Automatically add .torrent files from _______ (I entered D:\Downloads, which is in one of my PC hard drives.)

- Start added downloads

- Move the .torrent file to the trash (I wonder if this is also the recycle bin in Windows)

I can't find a recycle bin option in Preferences / Desktop.

When a .torrent is downloaded from the browser to D:\Downloads, the Transmission desktop apps automatically adds it to the queue but the .torrent in D:\Downloads is not deleted.

This thing is confusing me. I don't or never had this sort of issues with torrents.

Thanks for reporting. Should be fixed in current nightly (2.92+ (dd538539aa)) or any later version.
