Hi!
If torrent has multiple folders and you only select 1 folder, all folders are seen on disk where there should be only selected one.

Hi!
Tried with latest alpha, issue is still there.
I downloaded torrent with 10 files but selected only 2.
In the end I had 5 files on disk 2 were working (the selected 2) other 3 were corrupt (not downloaded really, but still in the downloaded folder).

Duplicate of #2659

Version 4.0.x is released. It uses libtorrent 1.1.x which puts the unwanted part files in the hidden file
".<torrent_hash>.parts" which is put in the same folder as the root folder(if any) of the torrent.
For the moment it's not possible to put that file somewhere else.
