Versions:
TON Torrent 1.7.1 is a lightweight desktop client that wraps the command-line tonutils-storage toolkit in a graphical interface, enabling users to seed and retrieve files on the TON Storage decentralized network. Positioned in the File Sharing category, the program allows any folder to be turned into a cryptographically verifiable “bag,” producing either a short bag ID or a portable .meta file that can be shared with peers. Because TON Storage operates on a peer-to-peer basis, at least one seeder must possess a routable public IP address; when neither the sender nor the recipient meets that requirement, the built-in wizard offers one-click upload to compatible storage-provider nodes so the data remains online and accessible. Version 1.7.1 refines the bag-creation dialog, adds progress bars for both seeding and leeching operations, and improves meta-file portability across different TON Storage implementations. A prior 1.6.x branch is still referenced in documentation, but only the 1.7.x line is actively maintained. Typical use cases include distributing large media collections without centralized hosting, backing up personal folders across multiple locations, and exchanging confidential archives whose integrity is automatically verified by the TON blockchain. The interface remains minimal—drag a folder onto the window, obtain the bag ID, and send it through any chat or email—while advanced settings expose bandwidth limits, storage quotas, and provider-selection rules for power users. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always serving the latest version and supporting batch installation alongside other applications.
