How move downed files to other location

[Casey44]

Drive too full.

Iwant to keep seeding downed files.

How to move them to other location/partition and keep the torrent going?

My standard download location for new files should remain the same.

Possible?

Stop the torrents, move the files, then right-click the torrents, Advanced > Set download location

If you have a lot of torrents, this might be a pain. If you're moving all files' base paths only (say, C:\Downloads\* to D:\OldDownloads\*), it's somewhat simplified by using BEncode Editor to batch replace all instances of C:\Downloads\ with D:\OldDownloads\, searching and replacing value by key (using path as the key). You'll want to pay attention to the warnings before using BEncode Editor though. Very careful attention.

Thanks.

1st time I tried this: Set download location was greyed out.

But next went ok.

Probab did something stupid, no stopping well, whatever.

Going to give BEncode a good look when time. I take it you mean the torrentfiles to be edited?

BTW: Any of

-Download/default locations,

-Down/Upload progress

being kept in Win(Vista) registry?

'Cause I'm a bit experimenting (not µTorrent) and backing up / restoring from drive-images.

You need to stop the torrent job before setting a new download location.

And no, the settings are not kept in the registry.

Er, actually, I meant Win+R > %appdata%\uTorrent\resume.dat

Sorry, I'd forgotten to mention it (thought I did).
