Creatchter Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I have spent my day going thru search and faq trying to set up my utorrent account and getting the software to do what I need. So far I have been run around for hours trying to migrate incomplete files from bittorrent. I was told it was simple "bull" my client will only down load one file at a time I searched every way i could and still nothing. Bittorent sucks but it works. Is this really worth the head ache? I am starting to think it is a big waste of timeany help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creatchter Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 the incomplete torrent files are just groups of #s ie efec0582-dfa9 no extensions .I read that I should add .torrent to them yes it kept me busy for a while and that was it I looke at them from the cmd prompt no help, I renamed . thru all the forum reading I never saw where anyone had the answer. there were allot of suggestions. All the proceures were targeted for bitcomet and some other one. No worries I only wanted to make the move for a few of the options I wanted that bettorent did not offer.thank you Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I read that I should add .torrent to themWhere did you read this?Follow the migration guide exactly and the files should import properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Actually, I have.If there is no additional extension added to the files by your client, you simply skip that step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creatchter Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 1 Open Notepad and write this line into it (replace "bc!" with which ever file extension you need to remove): @for /r %%i in (*.bc!) do @move "%%~fi" "%%~dpni" 2 In Notepad, File > Save As: RENAME.BAT 3 Open the location folder for the partially downloaded files you need to rename. 4 Drag and drop the RENAME.BAT file into this folder 5 Right click on RENAME.BAT > Open; a DOS window will briefly appear as it scrolls through all the files in the folder as they are getting renamed. ok maybe I am in the wrong place this is the proceure I found.If step 1 is skipped the rest seem worthless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Skip the entire stage where you rename files and go right to the next stage ("Loading torrents in µTorrent"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
