Turn off Seeding Permanently 5h4p20

Postby Badr » Tue Jul 02, 2019 8:01 am

Hello! This is my first feature request!
My request is why there is no option to disable ing? I have a limited internet bundle and for that reason, I won't be able to seed/ after ing a specific torrent file, I know there is an option to turn off seeding but it's temporarily and specifically you're turning it off for the file you're ing at the moment, and usually I big files through night and sleep, so most of the times I will forget to turn off seeding.
Sorry for taking long, I hope you consider my request.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
FDM6 has the option to specify global ratio limit.

I know that, I am asking to disable it completely, or adjusting it to 0 which is not allowed.

Well, you can set it to 1%. I don't think this will not be enough for you...

Is there not a way to disable seeding? I can , but I'm not really allowed to . I need to turn it off completely, else I'll have to use some other torrent manager.

I need to disable torrent completely. It interferes with VPN. It wont enable.

In earlier versions of FDM, you could install the software with or without torrent . This is apparently gone now. I need to disable torrent. It is necessary. please advise.

Hello,
In FDM6, you can just delete sbt.dll file in its folder to disable torrent functional completely. But, it will not be active anyway if you have no torrents in the list of your s.

You can limit the speed to e.g. 100 b/s. But this can prevent you from ing in some cases.

I have the same issue, as many s worldwide, I think.
The problem is that due to company security settings its not possible to install any Torrent client, its automatically disabled. FDM is still possible to use, but it performs outbound connections during torrent , which causes security alarms and subsequent security questions :(
Can you please implement setting of speed to 0 meaning complete disabling of connections creation? It will make FDM invisible for office security and still letting s. I know, its not good for torrents lifetime, but using corporate computer I have no options :(
