It happens after restart of qbittorrent that it starts to download again some files even if they were completed. Force re-check would not help to dtermine that these files were already completed. Very strange behaviour. Fortunatelly it is just for a few files.

I am using qbittorrent v3.0.6 for Mac OS X. I am running OS X 10.8.2.

I've had this happen sporadically, on Win7.

Got the same thing too on Win 7 x64.
On my system it only happens to torrents I used the "set location" property from the context menue and changed its location from the default one in the settings or the the default one I selected when adding the torrent the first time.
However a temporary workaround for me was to use "set location" and simply select the folder the file actually is and then do a "force-recheck".

This should be fixed with a1a5fb065e and bbf47b0907

It will be included with v3.1.0 which is the next stable release planned. For those who cannot wait:
For Windows try my nightly: http://qbforums.shiki.hu/index.php/topic,1747.msg8034.html#msg8034
For Ubuntu use this PPA(wait for the autobuild to sync): http://launchpad.net/~hydr0g3n/+archive/qbittorrent-trunk/
Others: Find a 3rd party who provides packages from git master or just wait for your distro to package v3.1.0
