i dled several rars and tars and other archivable files. once i got them i then went and attempted to open them, to my surprise i found that they didnt have anything in some of them but still registered for the full file space. so i figured i would redownload them and well it tells me that i have already dled the file. is there anyway to get around the problem.

thanks for any and all info.

First move it out of any shared directory.

Then go to Shared Files -> Context Menu -> Show all known files -> look for the file you want to redownload -> Delete selected known file

Another hint, if the files completed successfully:

You propably use a too old or wrong archive tool. For .rar use only WinRAR 3.20 or newer, for .ace use only WinACE 2.50 or newer. Don't use WinRAR for .ace or WinACE for .rar!

Or you can use ExtractNow for all of them. tongue.gif
