Opera torrent downloader?

Question

anyone know how to turn off the torrent downloader in the opera browser because i want to use a different program to download the torrent. or do you know how to change options like set a max upload rate?

Answer 1

To turn off:

In the address bar type - opera:config

Click Bittorent and uncheck the box next to "Enable".

Now opera will just download the .torrent file. You can open it with any torrent client :)

At the same place you can edit rates for upload/download.

If you want to set a different default program for .torrent files in Opera:

1. Go to Preferences - Advanced - Downloads

2. Uncheck "Hide file types opened with Opera"

3. Find "torrent" and click "Edit"

4. Set your torrent client for torrent-files.

5. Save settings.

Cheers :)
