qBittorrent official forums

Hi, i dont know if this is a bug or if is working as intended.

I migrated from utorrent yesterday due to a tracker recommended it.

The way i work with torrents is that everything is downloaded into a download map, once i have unrared the files i move the torrent/folder to another drive, in utorrent this worked as a charm, i could select one or several torrents, choose "select download location" and then the complete folder with the downloaded files was moved.

When i try to do the same thing with qBittorrent it moves all files within the folder to a new destination, but dosent move the actually folder. so this leaves me with alot of files mixed over at the new destination and and empty folder over at the source destination.

exampel.
Torrent get downloaded to
C:\downloads\tvshow.s03e09.kaka

i unpack it and then i then i select "set location..." and i choose
D:\Series\TVShow\S03\

in utorrent that action moved tvshow.s03e09.kaka to D:\Series\TVShow\S03\
but qBittorrent moves the files within tvshow.s03e09.kaka to D:\Series\TVShow\S03\, leaving and empty folder over at downloads and then just alot of files in the \S03 folder.

I did a test to cut and paste the folder from C:\downloads\ to D:\Series\TVShow\S03\, i hoped that i would get an error in qBittorrent that file was missing so i could just set the location, but noooo, instead it downloads the tv show again.

So, is this a bug or is it working as intended and is there any script to migrate back to utorrent?

Best regards

So no one have ever had this problem?

im still in the work of moving torrents, i have now started to copy the folder name, then i create a new folder with that name over at the new destination.

sometimes my destination looks like \\Misc\Movie1\Files, next torrent i move end up in the folder \\Misc\Movie2\Movie2\Files using the exact same procedure.

I have the same problem. The only way I can get normal structure is to manually create target folder and move downloaded files into it.
Wonder if it is bug or no...

This sort of sounds like the discussion found here, where the original folder is not moved or deleted. If it is then a bug report has been made.
