Weird problem with saving torrent file--[solved]

[Takasan]

Here's the situation:
i have 2 Hard drives, [c] and [d]. In my secondary drive [d] i made a folder to hold all of my animes, named [anime-2]. I then made a shorcut for [anime-2] on my desktop. {You know, the yellow folder with the arrow on it lol}

Now I go to l33t-raws.org to download tokimeki. I save torrent file by 'saving target as' just so i don't have to go back to the site to start up the DL later. Then i open the file to specify where to store the actual anime. Instead of goin all the way to [my computer] and into drive [d] and finding folder [anime-2], I go to my desktop and click on the [anime-2] shorcut.

this is where the problem is. Instead of saving the show inside it, it seems the file became part of the [anime-2] folder. Nothing is in the folder except the torrent files. i try searchin for it but nothing.

I tried deleting the torrent file and starting up again, but the DL just starts from where it left off. I have no way of deleting the actual file....

I know this was long, but can someone help me out? This has happend before...and I really want to finish watching Tokimkei

The shortcut file is an actual file. It's not a folder. It only redirects you to the actual folder when you run the file.

What happened was that the shortcut file was converted into a folder through your torrent client. That's what I believe what happened from reading your description.

Now, from my understanding, your problem is that you want to save the files into your second drive. What you can do is (1) copy the folder (the ex-shortcut file) into wherever you want to save the your Tokimeki in the second hard drive. When the copying is successful, (2) delete the old file(s). (3) Run the torrent again and it should ask you where you want to save the files. (4) Choose the directory where the newly moved folder is in. If it doesn't ask for a new saving spot, you may hafta delete that .torrent file and download and run the new one (maybe save the .torrent file in to a different location) and repeat #4.

Thanks. I kinda thought about what you said and deleted the shorcut on my desktop, and then deleted it again the in [recylce bin] seems the file was made part of the shorcut folder.

Now I open up the torrent file and it asks me where to save the anime file again. So all is back to normal thanks [thugangel] You're my hero!
