Hello,
I am looking to migrate all the Qbitorrent data from old to new pc, was hoping if there are any guides that can help navigate with the process.
So far, I am looking at the pinned topic "migration windows tool" found in this thread, would this be ideal for my scenario, as far the migration, the step should be same, right?

You don't need that topic. Migration is not easy if you want to retain the same torrent state and everything because paths won't match up.
If you just want settings/stats, then:

Thank you for the advice. My goal is to mainly able to resume the active torrent, which majority of the items are on external drive. I was hoping to point back to those files and resume those torrent. I understand this may be a simple process but looking to find step by step process

Yes! The "migration windows tool" should be a great option for transferring your qBittorrent data. The steps should be the same—just ensure you copy the BT_backup and qBittorrent.ini files to the correct location on your new PC. Double-check paths and settings to keep everything intact. Hope your migration goes smoothly! My cousin needed help with her master’s thesis, so I searched for the best online writing services. I found Academized, which offers online writing services and decided to try there thesis writing service at
