Deluge 1.3.2 "Move Storage" option moved the entire folder

Post by DSpider »

I downloaded a "Wallpapers" torrent over a folder with the exact same name and when I tried to separate these two by using the "Move Storage" option, it didn't move just the files and folders from the torrent, it moved the entire folder !

And I think it may have overwritten some of the files in there... God damn it.

Shouldn't Deluge move (or even worse, REMOVE - I'm afraid to try it, lol), just the files that were downloaded ?

'Move Storage' is something that libtorrent does, so is out-with our control. There is a Deluge ticket but it is simply for reference.

It will move the entire folder so you should not have lost any data unless any files within the torrent are named the same as your existing files.
