doyouliketorrents Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 I have a new computer and want to keep using bittorrent as if nothing changed and continue all downloads and keep all progress and everything the same as my old computer. I was wondering if it's okay to move my bittorrent folder from my old computer to my new computer using copy+paste with a different username (ex. users\nameA\appdata\roaming\bittorrent to --> users\nameB\appdata\roaming\bittorrent.) However, I kept the directories the same for the torrents and their files and moved all such files to the same directories in the new computer (ex. put completed downloads in D:\downloads.) The only thing different would be the bittorrent folder because of the new username. Will changing the location have any affect on the program or my torrents?

Harold Feit Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Yup, the resume state file, resume.dat, uses full paths and not relative. You're going to probably need to reload all the torrents manually http://help.bittorrent.com/customer/portal/articles/1826055-how-do-i-migrate-torrents-from-another-client-to-bittorrent-?b_id=3884 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
