Im using Tribler 7.11 on Win10 laptop.
I’m downloading a ZIP-file with 100 PDF-files included.
The status shows that 80% of the download is completed.
When I check the download-directory, many PDF-files are already completed.
At that moment I wanted to restart my system for another reasons.
And so -while Tribler is downloading- I close Tribler.
Tribler indicates “Closing” but after a few seconds the key-button “Force to close” is displayed.
I waited another minute but nothing happens,
so I had to select “Force to close”
After the restart I start Tribler again and the download status now indicates that only 20% is downloaded.
And that is strange because all the files are still in the download directory.
So it seams that Tribler is not continuing with the correct data when a running system with a download in progress is forced to close.
Perhaps a few threads, like:
- File finshes downloading, then tribler deletes it, starts again
-
Lost files after update
and this thread
have the same cause…
It seems that Tribler7.11 is sometimes making mistakes with the data-management of downloaded files.
And in special situaties (update, restart etc) the result is an incorrect. status.
Thank you for the report! Tribler 7.11 has this problem indeed. As it turns out, the previous versions also had it. The bug was fixed today in the v7.12.0-RC3 release; you can try it! Now Tribler should shut down correctly without showing this “Force to close” button.
