Quick links. Downloading individual files from a torrent Post by Varjak » Sun Jun 17, pm I don't use Deluge or any torrent client that much , so each time I come back to it, there seems to be a new wrinkle not a complaint, just an explanation.

So, I'm using 1. I've always found it to be a reliable and useful client. I seem to remember that one used to be able to download individual files within a torrent, if it was broken down into files. I'm trying to download one that has lots of files I believe ; but I don't need or want all of them.

I'm particularly interested in only a few series worth and would like to restrict my download to that. As I recall, when you selected the torrent, there used to be a window where one could see all the files contained within it, and uncheck the ones you didn't want, before you even start downloading. Even after adding the torrent, it didn't show all the individual files as older ones do.
