Stop µTorrent Seeding Automatically After a Download
Source-checked About 10 minutes
Answer
Set a conservative global seed ratio or seeding-time goal and a completed-torrent upload limit, while respecting private-tracker rules and the swarm.
Check tracker requirements
Private trackers may require a minimum ratio or seed time; stopping early can harm your account.
Open queue settings
In µTorrent Classic preferences, find Queueing and set the minimum ratio or seeding-time goal you intend to honor.
Set the completion behavior
Use the completed-torrent upload-rate limit after the goal is reached; zero and unlimited can behave differently by version.
Test with legal content
Download a small authorized file and confirm the torrent changes state only after the configured goal.
