Thread: Problem on utorrent backup

Hello guys, today I have installed the Windows 7 in my PC (It was Win Xp). I have copyed the %AppData%\uTorrent of the old system to the %AppData%\uTorrent of the new system, but the settings didn't applyed. Anyone knows what I have to do? I was seeding alot of torrents, I cant lose my settings =/


I will be very helpfull if anyone helps me =D


Thanks

PS:. Sorry for my bad english =)

Well same thing happened to me..on windows 7 64bit....did you copied that stuff before or after you installed utorrent...do one thing uninstall utorrent paste that folder there then install it back...not sure if it's gonna work but I have tried everything else and nothing really worked...

Really Really Really Thank you! =D It works now =D. I was installing utorrent and after pasting the backup. I did what you say and works =D

Thank you very much!

u can continue seeding by adding those torrent files to utorrent and then pointing the download locations where the data is already downloaded, that for sure won't get u your settings back but u can seed your older torrents though, hope that helps :)

Yeah, but the problem is that I don't know all torrents that I was seeding and I like to see my ratios and the amount of uploads on the torrents. And I will have to re-configure all of the settings on utorrent =D

The path tht you copy the backup on the w7 is something like
C:\Users\*****\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent

right ?

I wonder if the issue is already solved but as he is not 33-55% he cannot close the thread...

While forbidden certainly offers good advice, there is another way to do it, to make a portable utorrent that will be immuned to further reinstall etc.

Just copy the content of the settings directory to utorrent directory itself and move utorrent directory to somewhere else like d:\program files(x86). Or any non-system directory you like. You can freely move this uTorrent folder anywhere you like and all settings are kept.

Problem back again and now I can't fix this =/ My PC had freezed and I reseted It. When thw windows open my utorrent was with no torrents seeding. I tryed to re-install this and place again the backup files, tryed to uninstall, place the files and install but not work. I need to fix this urgently! I was seeding 10 new torrents on GFT that I need to seed for more 1 day =/.

Thanks
