Recover Deleted Magnet Links?

Post by Lawrencetate1 »

Hi,

I was experimenting with torrent queuing and forgot about one of the features of that. I forgot that torrents that are finished are removed completely... gone, deleted. Several of the torrents were in a permanent state of seeding, so this was undesirable. Since the downloads were intact I thought I could simply add the missing torrents back to qBittorrent. I use magnet links exclusively.

When I click on the magnet link icon to add the torrent to download, qBittorrent gives me the message shown. I can't find the torrent anywhere. So, as it stands, I can no longer share or reinstate the torrents I accidentally deleted. qBittorrent has effectively eliminated these torrents permanently.

Short of a fresh install, is there any way these can be recovered? Can I edit a file that will eliminate references to each magnet link?

EDIT: Nevermind. They reappeared after turning queuing off, but there was quite a delay.
