Re: How do I change file location of a torrent??

Don't open the torrent from the GUI, go back to the post and click on the
torrent link. Bit Torrent will open (if you have it set to ask for a save
location) and you can click on "use an existing directory" and point BT to
the new location. It will quickly run up your download % to 100 and start
seeding.

When I'm trying to force a quick upload, I'll put the files on two or three
different computers and seed from them all in this manner.....
