Azureus conundrum...

Wertz

Okay I spent most of last night transferring files and settings between my old and new desktops (or rather windows wizard did).
Among the files that were transferred were audio/video that are in various states of d/l and are for the most part incomplete.
Now the trouble is that I stupidly forgot to install Az on the new comp first (not sure if it would have made a difference) so I have the semi-completed files but as it's a brand new install of the client there is no torrent data and thusly the files will not complete.

So is there a way I can go about fixing this? The obvious answer is to just finish the d/ls on the old PC and that's not really a problem, but if there were an easier way to get the torrent data to merge(?) with the new client on the new PC it would save a lot of messing about. I assume the data is kept in a file somewhere but I've looked in the Az program files and can't find anything.
As always any help is mucho appreciado

In your App Data folder in Documents and Settings , will have to unhide system folders to see them.

C:\Documents and Settings\anthony\Application Data\Azureus

I assume I leave out the anthony
So I just copy this file and insert it in the new client's folder?

The BAK files look like records of dloads, i think you need every file thats in the old pc transfered over.

Worked for me after a reinstall just copied over the entire program files Az dir and that App data dir and the dloads resumed on new install.

Leave in the Anthony bit if you want

Well it took some pissing about (I'm crap at finding hidden stuff, even in windows) but all is well in torrent land again.
Virtual +rep to you sir!
