Question

How do you seed files? What does this mean?

Community Answer

Normally, on Utorrent, files begin seeding as soon as they are finished downloading. When using Utorrent, you are downloading by receiving fragments of a file (or files) from other users. That said, seeding can be considered as you contributing to the sharing of these fragments, thus making it easier for others to download.

Question

When I go on to my app it's asking me to turn off private browsing, which I don't know how to do. Any help?

Community Answer

If you're on mac, you can go off private browsing by going into your Google Chrome or Safari preferences and it's pretty simple from there.

Question

How do I enlarge the box for choosing a torrent?

Community Answer

If you have the correct screen resolution, the whole of uTorrent can fit on your screen, so simply right click on your desktop, select "Screen Resolution," and adjust it from there. It's all trial and error; make a note of the correct resolution so you'll have it for the future.

Where is the ratio function on uTorrent?

To see the seeding ratio, right click the info bar (that one with name, size, status) and check "ratio". To configure the seeding ratio, go to options>preferences>queuing and modify the "minimum ratio" to whatever you want.
