restore deleted tasks

Hello all. I am downloading my torrents to an external hard drive. I started BitComet without turning on the ext.HD. It had the red error X’s next to each task, and without really thinking I restarted each one. They all started over at 0%. Then I realized the HD was off. Now I am having trouble resuming the old torrents where they left off. They were almost done. I think BitComet erased its connection to them and started new ones.

thank you [if this reaches anyone. first post ever in ANY forum.]

Stop all the tasks. Make sure that the drive is on, select them all, right-click on them and choose Manual Hash Check.

Let it do its thing.

You should get your old percentages back.
