What is a torrent file and and is? is it safe to download and install it on my PC?

Hello foxtrait,

Torrent is a small file (around), which contains all the information needed to download a file for that torrent was made. This means that it contains names of files, their sizes, where to download and so on. You can get torrents for almost anything on a lot of websites and torrent search engines.

Torrent is the most popular way to download large files, including movies and games (remember legality of downloading).

If you ask me if it is safe, it depends on the source it comes from. All torrents come from different sources.

You will need a torrent client to use torrents. I suggest that you use your favorite search engine and look for customers if you want to install it.

  • What is an xml file and how to find a missing one?

    What is an xml file? How to find one that is missing?

    In short, an XML file is a file structured data - in other words, it stores the data in a way that is easy for a computer scan and read, but it is also easy(-ish) for a human to read, too.

    Generally, XML can be used for configuration or preference data, or for the exchange of data between applications, but there are a multitude of possibilities.

    This means that, with regard to the resolution of your problem is concerned, that was no help. The whole point of XML is that it is easy for any application store some data he needs, so you need to be more specific on what application you are using and what XML file it is looking for. Only then can someone (possibly) steer you in the right direction.

    I went to file manager and saw a folder called 'protected_media '. Trying to open it gives me a "record not available: you don't have permission to access this folder" message. Why do I have this folder, and why I can't access it?

    In addition, what is the "miscellaneous"? Why have a folder inside called "android"? Why can I go/misc/android/DCIM/camera and find copies of what is in the file/device? Delete "misc" without messing anything?

  • What are the .so files and do I need it?

    Hello

    I do my final app release referred to the 10.1 SDK. I have an 'export Release Build'... the link appears in the file of the bar - descriptor.xml.

    Anyway, he packed up and signed the app very well. But in the folder "o.le - v7 ', by putting the".bar"file, , I see no other files. (I'm under the 10.1.0.1020 NDK and building waterfalls only). They have the following extensions:

    .so

    . so.1

    . so.1.0

    . so.1.0.0

    No idea what these files are for and if it is needed? I can leave it there, but I don't think they're going to use it to download from anywhere? I did a quick search on google for these files and do not really understand. As far as I KNOW, I only need to download the .bar forward of the App Store. Fix?

    Thank you

    Short answer: don't worry them. You only need the folder bar.

  • What is the /Scratch file and what is it used for 4.1

    First I want to thank all the people in the community of VMware for all knowledge/help/tips and tricks, these forums provide. The help you provide has been invaluable for me a novice of VMware!

    I studied for my VCP 4.1 and read a wealth of information for the review and sometimes met with the limited information about the partition /scratch. I searched everywhere for an answer or an explanation as to what this partition is for and if it is necessary, but there is nothing in the documentation for VMware 4.1 on it.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Welcome to the communities.

    It is used for the dumping of vm-support and upgrades or at least upgrades will fail unless I have create a. Installation of the USB/SD does not create one because there is no local disk in support. With USB / SD install you must manually create one usually on a data store.

  • What is the catalog file and how can I find?

    Hi sylviac

    A catalog is a database of the location of your photos and the information about them. When you change the pictures, rates, add keywords or other things to photos in Lightroom, all these changes are stored in the catalog. The photo files themselves are not affected. To create a new catalog: -.

    • Open Lightroom
    • New catalog, select file (Menu bar)

    Please go through these links using Adobe Photoshop Lightroom | How Lightroom catalogs work   and How to create and manage catalogs in Photoshop Lightroom
