What are "contemporaries downloads"?

sorry, error in translation. "simultaneous downloads" is the right definition (or active downloads)?

setvisible commented 3 years ago

If you want to change the number of concurrent downloads (number of files downloaded in parallel), go to Option > Preference > Network and change "concurrent downloads". It's 4 by default.

For a torrent it's different (a Torrent can generally contain several files in it). By default, the files are downloaded randomly, but you can change the priority of each of them with right-click on the file(s) > Priority: ... You can also ignore some files, which saves bandwidth and avoids downloading unwanted parts.

Hope it helps :)
