Hi, I made a small app for situations when your downloads folder is already flooded with torrents and you wish to make sub-folders based on labels, but don't want to manually change every path tag with a BEncode tool (or similar).

So steps would be.

1. Correctly label all your torrents to match future subfolder.

2. Stop all your torrents.

3. Close uTorrent.

4. Move all the files to their subfolders (must be done manually).

5. Get resume.dat from %appdata%/uTorrent/ and put into same folder as utorrenthelper.exe

6. Copy resume.dat to that %appdata%/uTorrent/ folder

7. Run utorrenthelper.exe

8. Start uTorrent

9. Force re-check on every file.

10. Change settings->Directories->[x]Append the torrent's label

And you're done for the future. They will be seeded in the new folders and your future torrents will go to correct folders by tagging them.

utorrenthelper.exe is x86 executable done in windows xp with Qt 4.7.0 and in effect opens the resume.dat, looks for "labelXX" tags, parses the label and adds it to subsequent path-variable and corrects the length of both. Doesn't decode the file or anything, just parses it as text. Very rough source code supplied with the zip. Requires some libraries to run (mingw + possibly more). Google it.
