DigitalD2 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 I installed a new HDD into my computer and reinstalled Windows and still have my old HDD still connected that had bittorrent installed and I have read in the forums here that if I transfer all of the .torrent files from my old AppData\roaming\BitTorrent\ to the new drive of the same location that the new installation would see all of the files I was seeding and pick back up where I left off from but the program doesn't see any of those files, just the new ones I have created to seed. What do I need to do so the new installment of BitTorrent will read the .torrent files I copied into the directory. Also if I try to save any new files through BitTorrent into the directory I was saving with the old installment of BitTorrent then I get a message the files can't be saved to that directory so I have to choose a new one but all of the old files are there and I can access them but just can't have BitTorrent save any new files to that directory. What do I need to do so I can keep all of my seeded files in the same directory if I am downloading or uploading them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigitalD2 Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Thank you for this response and I followed the instructions on adding the .torrent files but the client is RE-downloading the files, I just want to seed the files not redownload them again. What do I need to do so I am not downloading the files again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Have the files in your default download folder when you add the torrent, no renaming, no folder structure changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
