Cleanup Settings

These settings control how the Download Cleaner handles different categories of downloads that need to be removed.

Note

A download is cleaned when both MAX_RATIO and MIN_SEED_TIME or just MAX_SEED_TIME is reached.

Note

Multiple categories can be specified using this format, where <NUMBER> starts from 0:
