Hey guys,

About to reformat and reinstall OS. I have a few active torrents that I need to resurrect once I've reinstalled though to continue seeding.
I'm sure plenty of you have done this before so should be a simple answer - do I need to do any more than just backup my uTorrent downloads directory (which I've set up to contain separate folders for completed downloads, in progress downloads, and saved torrent files). I'm sure this will be fine, I'm just thinking about the fact that MMA-T torrents are obviously security keyed, will the system recognise it's me after I've reinstalled and reloaded the directory to seed ok?

Ta! Lenoz.

Hi mate!

Got some tips for you.

1.

Go to

C:\Documents and Settings\Dent\Application Data\uTorrent (Change 'Dent' for the name of the userprofile you use)

Copy the whole folder uTorrent and save it on an external device or so.

After reinstall install uTorrent and then go to the same location ...Application Data\uTorrent and paste in the content of the folder so that they are on their original place but on the new install.

2.

If you have .torrentfiles aka the uTorrentfiles, and the material you are seeding on external HDD's, make a note of the drive letters (d:, f: etc) and after reinstall go to the discmanager in windows and change the driveletters to the same as they had before reinstall. That way uTorrent will find them if you did tip 1, and all you need to do is force recheck.

3.

Try to make sure that you always change all the default folders in uTorrent to have other HDD's then c: as 'incomplete folder' and folders for .torrent files. That way you can reinstall and do tip 1 and 2 and its all you need to do really. The client will find the torrents and you just need to recheck.


I know that other people use other methods. You can save all the torrent files and then add them to an autoload folder etc, Im sure there are many ways. But above is how I do it.

If anybody else have other or better tips go ahead.


Good luck :)

Safe Dent, thanks. Will remember to back up the App Data folder for uTorrent.
Was most concerned the server wouldn't recognise me, but if worst comes to worst I guess I can just re-download torrents and resume seeding.

Cheers as ever. :)

If you use same .torrent files the passkey should still be there and you should be able to seed without problems :)
