-//Import Unfinished Download:// Allows you to import unfinished files downloaded by the following clients: BitComet, µTorrent and Xunlei. Firstly you'll have to select an unfinished file or a folder containing unfinished files. +  * //Import Unfinished Download:// <html><span id="import">Allows</span></html> you to import unfinished files, for those downloaded by the following clients: BitComet, µTorrent and Xunlei.\\ (Starting with v.1.23 BitComet is able to import unfinished downloads from any other client. In order to enable that you'll have to choose //All files// in the drop-down box where you can choose the file extension type. The difference is that for the 3 above stated clients, once you point the unfinished file or the folder containing unfinished files, BitComet will search and locate automatically the .torrent file; on the other hand for the files generated by other clients or for files which don't have a specific extension attached - e.g. //.!ut// - you will have to manually navigate to the location which contains the .torrent file, since BitComet can't determine the downloading application and therefore neither the directory containing the .torrent files.)\\  First you'll have to select an unfinished file or a folder containing unfinished files.
