How do I tell µTorrent to download files within a torrent sequentially?

Question

Normally µTorrent will download many files simultaneously. Is there a way to tell it to use all bandwidth/connections to download one file and then move to the other?

Setting file priorities does help, but that's a lot of manual work, and two files with the same priority will be downloaded in parallel anyway.

Answer 1

Options → Preferences → Queuing → Max. number of active downloads = 1

Answer 2

Well I don't know how to queue files within a torrent but I quote form another source:

That this is a bad idea is an understatement. If you don't understand why, then you don't really understand how torrents work so it might be difficult to explain, but imagine when you're doing your grocery shopping and have 100 items on your list, so you walk every single aisle in the store until you get to the milk, because it's #1 on your list. You just passed bread, vegetables, fruit, cereal, frozen foods and got none of it even though you know you needed it because you've decided it's a better idea to get them in order. Now that you've got your milk, next is coffee, so you start at the beginning and walk every aisle again until you get coffee.

If you ask me whether the priority feature for files must also be a bad idea then I would say no. Priority works differently than queuing. When you set a file to high priority, it will be downloaded ahead of the files with lower priority, given that pieces are available for both. But if the pieces for a high priority file are not available, compared to a low priority file, it will download the low priority file.
