What settings do I copy to keep my settings?

Post by sensualfreespirit »

Hi,

I just redid my computer & copied the settings & nothing copied over when I reinstalled QB & copied that file over. :(

What do I copy if that doesn't work?

qBittorrent in Local folders.

Thanks, but I don't have anything in %APPDATA%\qBittorrent

That's not where settings usually are b/c there's only these 3 folders.

Uhm, you had that folder on the old PC, and that's what you copy over.

%APPDATA% is just a Windows "trick", it's: C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\qBittorrent
%LOCALAPPDATA% is: C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\Local\qBittorrent

And you basically need both folders.
