Cant open.torrent file Error message

Hello,

u torrent had been working fine. Then I logged off. Now when I log back on I get the message Cant open.torrent file :D etc etc. I know that the files are actually stored in my :e drive. So its looking in the wrong place. How do I change this? It is set to store them in the :e under the downloads menu.

If this helps.When I first set it up weeks ago I had them going to my :D drive but found there was insufficient disc space so I copied all files over to my :e drive with the same folder name etc. Then changed the drive letter under the downloads menu. It all worked fine.

Help please

Thanks

Herb

Other than the drive letter change, is the new path for the .torrent files the same as the old path? (For example, if the old path was D:\ABCDEFG\HIJKLMNOP\, is the new path E:\ABCDEFG\HIJKLMNOP\?)

In that case, I suppose you can try opening resume.dat in a hex editor and change all instances of D: to E: for the paths to .torrent files (don't get it confused with paths to where the torrent contents are saved -- those shouldn't be modified). Make sure you make a backup of resume.dat in case that idea goes wrong ;o
