	Hands off operation. TrustyFiles features automatic downloading . You don't have to do anything at the Downloads screen. The software automatically cycles through the Downloads list to pick files for processing, tries to download files from current sources, and searches for more sources. Uploads are similarly automatically processed.

Resize a column by clicking and dragging the column divider on the right side of the column. Hide a column by dragging the divider all the way to the left to the previous column. Unhide a column by dragging the divider where it was hidden to the right.

Take out the trash.
Keep your Downloads list current and accurate:

1. Eliminate redundant files.
You may download several similar files to maximize your chance of getting one. When you do get the file you seek and verify that the file is good, cancel the duplicate downloads that you no longer need.

2. Clear out the dead files.
Download a few files here and a few there and it's easy to pile up hundreds or even thousands of files in your Downloads list. At some point you'll want TrustyFiles to focus on the files that have a reasonable chance of downloading.

If you're a regular user and have files on the list that are a month old with only 1 or 2 sources, those files are good candidates to delete. The few sources mean just one person has the file, he is rarely online, and he isn't sharing the file or letting it be downloaded.
