meursaultsamsa Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 HiA few days ago i installed windows 8 onto a new hdd, so the old hdd is still untouched. I'm trying to recover my old torrents and file with no results:I have copied the %Appdata% folder; i have launched utorrent, but every torrent show the same error in the status bar, more or less "impossible to open .torrent file at "directory" " .I have also edited the "resume.dat" file and changed the disk path from C: to F: (that's the current allocation of my old hard disk).When i try to add a single .torrent, located in the same folder of the complete files, utorrent don't recognize files, also after force re-check it show "arrested at 0%".Help (sorry for bad english) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciaobaby Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 did you remove ALL the existing jobs first?or delete resume.dat and rebuild from scratch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meursaultsamsa Posted March 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 yeah the list was clear, i did not delete the resume.dat. Now a lot of torrent files in the archive have appended .loaded extension and utorrent can't recognize it anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Remove the .loaded extension. If there are more than a handful, download and install this tool >>>> http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=124826I've also uploaded a rename pattern file for it at http://chrishirst.is-my-name.com/dload/remove-loaded-ext.zip to remove the extra extension.Extract the .bru file from the zip then open it with the rename utility.
