The BitTorrent protocol has evolved so much that almost every single client that’s on the market has the ability to create torrent files in a matter of seconds.

But there was a time when only dedicated applications could do that, and during that period, MakeTorrent was one of the top picks.

MakeTorrent is actually a simple application that’s supposed to assist you in the task of building torrent files that will be then distributed over the Internet to be downloaded by other users.

The interface is very simple and the user has two available options to create a torrent file: simple and classic. No matter which one you choose, the result will still be the same.

Of course, there’s also the possibility to create torrents from entire folders or just for one file, so it’s only up to you and the content you wish to distribute.

The creation process per se takes only a few seconds and that’s absolutely normal since this is only a basic operation. The app worked very smooth on our testing machines, even on Windows 7, but it should be fine on older computers as well.

All things considered, MakeTorrent might be the right choice if you still don’t get along with one of the popular BitTorrent clients that are also able to create torrents, but otherwise it might be just another thing to take care of.
