Due to bad shutdown, all my torrent entries are removed..

[i_am_Sid]

I have a laptop with no battery but with direct power supply. Today morning, due to unexpected power cut, laptop was shutdown. At that time downloading was on.

But later when i started my laptop, all my torrents were gone. Active, inactive, stopped, removed, paused, downloading; every torrent is gone.

BUT the statics and settings are intact. All of my source files are still located in my

\Application Data\uTorrent.

I have been using utorrent for 6 and a half years. Never encountered any problem like this.

Currently i am using version 3.2.3 build 28705, 32 bit.

PLEASE help me out.

And if the problem is related to resume.dat, here is some information.

There are three resume.dat files

resume.dat -------- 99bytes

resume.dat.old -------- 99bytes

resume.dat.1367605042.bad -------- 8.74 Mb

ok, so the bad shutdown caused a corruption in the resume file.

You MIGHT be able to get the resume.dat.bad loaded into uTorrent, but it's not recommended.

Instead, follow the migration guide in the help file.

Also, 3.2.3 is old.

@DWK

I had around 3000 torrent entries in it. I wanted it back as it is.

Why did you say it's not recommended to get the resume.dat.bad loaded into uTorrent? Any risk associated with it?

Can system restore help in this case, in any way?

OK, I got everything back as it is, for MYSELF. Thanks to me then.

By the way, migrating files never works good for people who have hundreds of torrent entries in the client. Its kind of a patch-up, sometimes end up hotch-poched. Better start as new..

I had 2952 torrent entries. Got them as it is. Feeling good.

Great.

A suggestion is to make a backup of all .dat files.

I also got a lot of torrents and statistics I don't want to lose.
