Error in uTorrent

Hello,
I lost a file that I have been downloading for over a week; I accidentally deleted the download folder;
I recovered this folder from mininova, but it won't restart!
Darn, because I was already at 80%,
it keeps responding: missing files error; please check ...

Is it possible to continue? Or do I have to start all over again?
Thank you!

    I know the topic is closed but for those experiencing the same issue and looking for a solution, I've found an answer!

    Simply cancel the download without deleting what you've already received of the file in the download directory... ===> Go back to the site from which you downloaded it the first time... ===> Restart the download, instead of starting at 0%, it will simply complete what you have already received of the file ;) !!

    Bye

      Not really... I had 80% of the files loaded, but when I restarted the download, it went back to 40%, deleting files it had already downloaded!!! And I'm not sure it won’t stop again at 80%!!!

      The topic being unresolved, I am bringing it back up.

      Blsm781, if you have this behavior, it means that the downloaded file is not correct and contains errors. If you insist and eventually complete the download, it is not impossible that it will say that the file is corrupted or unavailable...

      If you can, contact the provider or the person who published this file.

      This applies to any other similar behavior, but before that, watch your ratio... if it is too low, your connection will be restricted, naturally.

      Thank you for the solution!
      I had downloaded a 4 GB torrent, but I accidentally deleted a very small 3 KB file, and now I can't seed: missing files.
      It "verified" the files I already had and re-downloaded the tiny file!

      Thanks again.

      I'm still new to the forums, really your practice is very cool, I was already thinking about starting the download from scratch.

    If your file is 80% in your recycle bin, restore it. Otherwise, you'll have to start all over again.

    For your error message, you just need to either recreate a "download" folder or, in the "preferences/download" section of uTorrent, designate a new download folder.

    Hello you two,
    I was not able to recover my 80%....
    I started from scratch!
    But thanks to Ramboost, and a different entry number, I was able to speed up my downloads.

    Thanks anyway, and bye

    Hi,
    do you mean that when you click "add a torrent", the availability bar stays red?
