Torrenta 0.4.1 released

October 28, 2026 · 0.4.1

Torrenta 0.4.1 fixes one bug, and everyone on 0.4.0 should update.

With the .part suffix on (Settings → Adding torrents), a finished torrent that had a folder of its own came back from a restart at 0 % and started downloading again, into new .part files beside the complete ones. libtorrent saves a file whose suffix has come off under a name it then looks for in the wrong folder. 0.3.0 had the bug too, but 0.4.0’s first restart after a batch of downloads made it obvious.

Your files were never touched. The complete copies stayed where they were, under their own names.

If it happened to you

1. Install 0.4.1 and start it once. Each torrent the bug caught is found complete under its own names, its pieces are checked, and it comes back as it was (a large one takes a few minutes to check).
2. Open View → Debug Log. For each repaired torrent it names the leftover .part files. Once the torrent shows complete, delete them to get the space back.

Download

From the release page:

• macOS (Apple Silicon): the macos-arm64 DMG.
• Windows (x64): the MSI.
• Linux (x64): the DEB (sudo apt install ./Torrenta-*.deb) or the RPM (sudo dnf install ./Torrenta-*.rpm).

Each bundles its own Java runtime. The builds are still unsigned: on macOS allow the first launch under System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway, and on Windows choose More info → Run anyway if SmartScreen warns. Verify a download against checksums_sha256.txt.

What else is new since 0.3.0 is in the 0.4.0 post.
