All good with the beta. Issues described in the above-mentioned thread were somehow gone, but new ones seem to emerge. That's why it's called a Beta, I guess. \r\n\r\nHere it is. I open a torrent file and at the Loading Dialogue  [AKA 'Add new torrent' window] (LOL!) I see that the torrent's content is organised into 3 folders, which in turn contain lots of other folders. Of those 3 folders I unchecked 2 and left only 1 checked with the hope that only the checked folder will be downloaded. However, when the torrent was downloaded I saw that all the 3 folders were downloaded, but luckily were empty. Only the folder I had initially checked was populated with content. The other 2 folders and the folders they contained were all downloaded but just empty! That is kinda annoying. Hope it will be fixed and that is why I'm giving you this feedback.\r\n\r\nUnfortunately, I tested again with similar torrents containing multiple folders and that time not only did all folders and subfolders download (although I had intentionally UNchecked them at the 'Add new torrent' window) but also some of their content was downloaded as well. When I say 'some' I mean that those folders contained something like 10-15 mp3 files and occasionally 1 or 2 mp3 files would be downloaded in those folders, which (as I said) I had purposefully UNchecked so as not to download. It is annoying enough that those folders even get downloaded empty, let alone to have some of their content download as well.\r\n\r\nLove you app! Don't do what uTorrent did. Best of luck and hope you guys can resolve this one for the stable release. I am on Windows 7 x64 Pro SP1 with updates on everything, basically.\r\n\r\nPS\r\nThe issue described in this post happened when I was downloading the above-mentioned torrent types (i.e. torrents with multiple folders) to my internal HDD, if that is of any importance to the whole context."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/comments/164433489","html_url":"https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/2950#issuecomment-164433489","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/2950","id":164433489,"user":{"login":"Shirkit","id":829823,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/829823?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit","html_url":"https://github.com/Shirkit","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Shirkit/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-12-14T13:17:05Z","updated_at":"2015-12-14T13:17:05Z","body":"Maybe it's good enough to implement a period pos-check on Windows only to solve this issue? As an advanced option, and only enabled if check torrents at completion is enabled? Probably not worth it."}}
