Ah that problem exists on RT too, such a stupid problem that can't happen except on a stupid OS, this problem drove me nuts on Windows 8, I remember that I had to reboot to fix it, my guess you already did.

A bit Torrent isn't like direct download. If there are no seeders and only leaches, you have nothing to download.

Every seed lets you grab a bit... Bit Torrent. You don't latch onto a whole file and real it in until it comes complete. You nibble away at other users shares to build a whole from the individual bits. A lot is going to depend on what Torrent Services you are subscribed to and how many others are sharing the file. Those shares might place restrictions on how much of their bandwidth you can use. You are connecting to (hopefully) multiple users with most or all of the file when optimized. Depending on the popularity of the file (or lack thereof) it could be far from optimal. You could have all the bits that other "leaches" are storing, but if there is no "seed" - no whole file out there (as can sometimes happen) you will never make any progress.
