Reinstall of Utorrent

[gmanning]

I had to reinstall Utorrent after a computer crash.

Everything I had in the Utorrent display is lost.

The files are still on my computer. I would like to restore the completed, for seeding, and the active for completion.

The Utorrent torrents which have been added are in the Documents/application folder as normal, the active files (data not the torrents) are in a separate folder and the completed (data not torrents) in another.

Suggections ... I really need the files back to continue loading/seeding.

Regards,

Glenn

If you have all the .torrent files, you just need to load them back one by one.

I don't have the old torrent files. Is there a location where UT keeps the active and completed torrents like we see on the activity screen?

I could do this one by one but I woulod need to search for each one based on the active/complete data files

Thanks,

Glenn

Well, uTorrent keeps the torrent files in the same place as all of its data files (resume.dat, settings.dat, etc), which is %AppData%\uTorrent. If you don't have the torrent files there in the backup you made, then unfortunately, there's nothing you can do.

Thanks for your respose. If I can get this to work it will save me a lot of time and also ratios. Here is what I have:

In the Directory section of UTorrent:

Put New Download in: F:\Torrents (this currently contains all data in the process of being completed)

Move completed downloads to: F\Movie (this contains all completed downloaded data)

Only move from the default directory is checked.

Remaining options are not selected.

When I add a torrent from the torrent location (F:\Utorrent) into UTorrent, if the completed data remains in the F:\Movie directory, a new download begins.

If I move the completed data to F:\Torrents, and then add the torrent, a check file begins and then quickly turns into a download.

Is there a better way to organize the files? I appreciate your help.

PS, I did get one download to begin seeding by moving the data file to the F:\Torrents directory but only one.

Thanks and Regards,

I will never upgrade again. If it ain't broke don't fix it. All the torrents I personally created are gone. Loading them only starts the download which will ruin my ratio. I've tried everything and they just start download which I don't want since I'm the one who uploaded them in the first place :-( Any answers?
