How, Dual OS, same utorrent source, set up.

[RafVne2]

So... I've got 3 drives C:,D:, and F:...

C:... windows 7... i usually use that one....

D:... storage unit... Utorrent files are located here... as in ... D:\incomplete, D:\completed,D:\ torrents

F:... recently installed XPpro for gaming purposes only... but... I'd like to keep seeding while I play... Seeding the stuff I have downloaded while logged in into WIN7.

So... how do I set up Utorrent to read anything, that I have done while logged in to windows 7, to read it when I'm logged in into XPpro?...

... I know... it's hard to explain, but I hope you know what I have in mind...

You can use µT as standalone (read FAQ).

Of course, µT executed from F: needs to have access to the files stored on D:.

Hmmm... it really doesn't say much... even though I have run UT from XPpro and defined directories to "completed" "incomplete", It still doesn't resume the ongoing torrents that have been in "queue" "seeding"in WIN 7... i don't know where file containing all of the "current active torrents" is located.

It's in the folder %appdata%\utorrent on the disk where you installed µT (C: in your case I guess).

Yeah I've found it in appdata/roaming/utorrent but I can't set up utorrent installed on XP to access those files.

So now... basically I have two separate utorrent installations... one on Win7, and one on XP... so If I have downloaded something while logged in in Win7... I can't continue seeding it while logged into XP

Thanks for your help anyways... unless you have any idea how to make it work...

That's why I said you to run µT as standalone.

Move the contents of %appdata%\utorrent into the same folder than utorrent.exe then move this folder onto D:. So XP and Win 7 will have access to D: and you will be able to run µT.
