This happens when other users hit-and-run the swarm without seeding the complete torrent. If all else fails, try to find a similar torrent that is well-seeded. Most torrent clients have a built-in encryption option designed to help circumvent throttling. But your settings are too strict, you might be reducing your number of available peers. Or just disable protocol encryption altogether. You should be getting your secure encryption from a VPN anyway.
Sometimes your torrent client will accidentally be set to use a listening port that is blocked or in use by another program. Port forwarding errors used to cause so many problems for me.
All traffic on the listen port needs to be forwarded to the device running your torrent client. Typically we recommend using a VPN instead of a proxy for the encryption. Others prefer the one-time setup with no extra software required.
The setup process can be a bit tricky, and in some cases could lead to torrents not downloading at all. Try setting it up from scratch again. You may need to open the port manually port for many services. Try enabling DHT in your client settings. A torrent Tracker is responsible for keeping an updated list of peers sharing the file. Your torrent client should update the tracker periodically, but sometimes it gets stuck.
Here in the USA, most of the major Internet Service Providers have been caught throttling traffic at one time or another. Firstly, you need to make sure your Windows Firewall or anti-virus app is not blocking your uTorrent. Although the uTorrent setup wizard will automatically add an exception for uTorrent in Windows Firewall, sometimes this will fail due to your third-party antivirus settings.
If your antivirus app is doing an excellent job, it may take over control over your Windows Firewall and block your uTorrent, thus causing uTorrent not downloading issues.
If your uTorrent is stuck on connecting to peers , it can be a temporary stale download caused by outdated seeders or trackers. This will immediately check for more peers. Then navigate to the uTorrent folder and delete the file named resume. The culprit can be uTorrent settings such as ports not working, you can run a quick test and let uTorrent adjust its settings automatically.
Some of the configurations of uTorrent will interfere with your internet connection, thus causing the uTorrent not downloading issues.
Here is how to fix it:. This can check if this issue is related to a network problem. If all of these fail to solve your problem, then the problem might be your torrent file — dead torrent no Seeds.
Because uTorrent downloading is based on Peers to Peers connection downloading files from other computers , the seeds decrease and the Torrent file becomes dead and impossible to download. You can search for an alternative torrent file with more seeds in one of these Torrent Websites:. Did the fixes above solve your uTorrent not downloading? Hopefully, uTorrent is working like a charm now. Feel free to leave a comment if you have further questions or suggestions.
