Directory Watcher

[kricker]

I added the Directory Watcher plugin to my atuostart group. I set the folder to my torrent download folder. I want to monitor this folder and perform an action when a file appears and becomes unlocked by utorrent. Is there a way to monitor when a file becomes unlocked by another process?

Never tried it but I'm thinking you may need a combination of some scripting and a SysInternals tool called NTHandle.

Basically you would need to run handle against your path and then do something with it's results.

An easier way might be to use uTorrent's built-in move feature.

Once the torrent has completed the DL, uTorrent will move it to a specified directory... then you can have Watcher do what you need to it.

and/or you can set uT to append .!ut to incomplete files... then have Watcher do something with them once they no longer end with .!ut

Sure it moves the file to the directory (which is what I am doing), but the file is still seeding and therefore locked by utorrent. I only want to move the files when they are done seeding.
