HELP: ISO File not in NTFS Volume after torrented download

Post by tman9285 »

I was installing PR through the torrent and it completed download. However, when I double clicked on the ISO file, it did not open any installer. Instead, an error message popped up saying "Make sure the file is in NTFS volume and isn't in a compressed folder or volume.". Please help!

Test the torrent by running this in commandine on Windows:

CertUtil -hashfile prbf2_1.4.1.0_full.iso SHA1
The result should be

Thanks for the reply, but for the command prompt, do you need to route the command to the folder the file is in? I tried the command, but it kept on saying the file was not found and that the hashfile command failed.

Actually, I right clicked the iso and selected SHA-1, but the result was 9446E73585791... Is it possible that the torrented file is corrupt?

You need to run the command in the same folder.
Its possible that the torrent is corrupt or not finished, use a proper torrent client such as qBittorrent.

Thanks again, but I tried the command and when I hit enter, nothing happened.

It takes a couple of minutes, or you're doing something wrong.

OK, the command worked, but the same problem persists. What else could be done?

And the result is correct?

I suggest using winrar to open it and just copy the contents to a temp folder.

The result was correct. Still did not work. I also attempted to extract files, but they could not be extracted to archive.
