Removing stuck torrent from rutorrent
Solution
Cleaning out the contents of the “.sessions” folder in your rutorrent folder can help resolve issues with torrents that are stuck. This is because the “.sessions” folder stores temporary data related to the torrents, and clearing it out can help reset the torrent client and potentially fix any issues that may be causing the torrent to get stuck.
After the session folder is cleaned up restart rutorrent.
