hi

 

I'm using utorent to download through my network to a remote directory from a XP machine to a 7 x64.

 

The remote directory is mounted as X: on the xp computer as a share at the root level, I.E \\192.168.1.10\F$ with all rights set so I've full access to this share and I can access it through explorer.

 

 

My issue is that when I use that share in utorrent, one level down to the root , x:\temp\, to save the downloaded files related to any torrent, the directory structure inside the torrent is lost : all files are saved in the temp directory as a whole but when I use a local disk structure on the XP computer like D:\temp\, everything is fine...

 

 

I've no idea what's doing this... does somebody have a clue ?

How about a screen shot of the directory settings in utorrent that will help more.

Nothing is set in directory settings besides the "move only from default diectory" (rough translation, as my utorrent is in french) that is set by default.

 

The issue is that local (the native computer, hosting utorrent) folders used to saved torrents never gave me any headache... local network folder, I.E a mounted drive on the native computer loses any directory structure related to all torrents and I don't see why....

We can talk all day but no screenshot then no one can see what the settings are to understand it - even if it is in French. There are probably others on here that can read French to see what is happening.

we can obviously talk all day as I clearly stated that there isn't any particular option set in the directries preferences (There is nothing to do with french or english) :.. If a picture can help you understand that, here it is...

What's bothering me is that since I used a remote location on my local network to house the downloaded torrent, all torrents are now saved in "bulk",, without any directory (if any) in them, leaving me with a bunch of files to go through to re order

Interesting issue. Workaround would be to save locally then move the files manually or as a run command after finishing.

Sys internals has a free tool called process monitor you can run on local machine to see what utorrent and file system is trying to do on remote machine. You could try running process monitor on w7 64 machine as well.

Generally, I don't recommend saving finished torrents to network drives. Network drives function differently and do not receive the feedback utorrent needs for file moves.
