windtor Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 I used to use BitLord, and have downloaded a substantial amount of a multifile torrent - some of the files are even complete - but I can't take how much it slows down my computer anymore. So, I would like to move this torrent to ut without loosing the files, which I can't access until the torrent is complete. How do I do this? Note: I am not very good at this stuff. I just kind of blunder my way through. So, please be specific. Thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 I believe you can export your torrents from BitLord (right clicking and saving torrent file?). Anyway, do that (I'm sorry, I can't be any more specific, since I've never used BitLord) and exit BitLord. Then go to each folder/file you're downloading, and check if the files have an extension added on (would it be .bc! for BitLord also?). If they do, remove each and every file's .bc! (or BitLord equivalent) extension. Now you can open the torrents in µTorrent and point it to the corresponding files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splintax Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Glad you sorted out the problem.I didn't know BitLord/BitComet had such a feature (exporting torrents), but you can always just redownload the torrents from the original source and it would have had the same effect.

davesnothere Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 BL / BC's habit of using unique extensions for their torrent files is an Option, and can be disabled at the start.If you were smart / lucky enough (I was) to have done that, the transition is even easier.Cheers !
