YLSF Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 I am looking for a way to move my torrents after a certain length of time to another directory. I have been having to do it manually for each torrent instead of being able to select like 10 different torrents and set the download location one time for all of these torrents. Is there a way to do this? When I select a bunch of different torrents and do the "set download" location it will pop up each time asking me which folder I want to set. And because of the file browser that comes up it doesn't remember the last location I set either so I have to browse through all of the directories to get to the correct one.I have been searching on this forum but I haven't seen anyone really discuss my particular issue. I see that "Relocate" has been added to the latest utorrent but it seems to work on the "file tab" vs working at the torrent listing level. So, is there something I am missing or a way around this issue? I would like to be able to quickly bulk move files and not have to either manually tell utorrent for each folder or find some kind of quicker way to do this.thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Use the freeware BEncode Editor (http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=31306) and edit the file resume.dat, there is a text editor and function 'find/replace'. Back up the file before editing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squowse Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Use the freeware BEncode Editor (http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=31306) and edit the file resume.dat, there is a text editor and function 'find/replace'. Back up the file before editing it.Thanks this is good for if the files are moved to a different drive/folder and you need to update the resume.dat file to find them but the OP (and myself) want to move a group of torrents into a different directory without confirming each one. We would have to move them then search through the resume.dat file to edit each one which is more effort than the current system of choosing the new folder in each dialog box in utorrent.

TerryTibbs Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 I would very much like to know if there is a way of doing this in the way that you're talking about, so far have had to manually to each one for about 200 torrents :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryTibbs Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 In fact I just figured how to do this, is really easy Put all your files into your new download folder/drive, remove all torrents from utorrent, then go back to the folder where you put the files and sort by type and drag all the .torrent files in to utorrent and then select all of them in utorrent and force recheck and it will update all the torrents and even move them to the completed folder if you have selected on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
