Locked Backup .torrent files from TeamOS only in QBittorrent

[mkrleza]

Hi guys,

I've tried googling, but to no avail. It's time to reinstall Windows. Now, I have many unnecessary torrents from the public trackers which I do not seed.
It's mostly movies and music and I want to keep the data files where they are (in the "Torrents" folder, where they were downloaded, on a separate drive from the OS).

But, I would like to continue seeding TeamOS torrents after re-install. How to separate 419 TeamOS .torrent files from the 600+ other .torrent files - so I can re-check only them?

I don't know if I'm clear enough... English isn't my main tongue. So, basically, I want to separate only TeamOS .torrent files from the rest of the bunch.

For what it's worth, I'm using QBittorrent - if this info helps...

Help?

try deleting just one of the public ones this way and then check

If you have them all labeled it should be easy...

Thanks, but, I want to keep all the data. It's just that I have so many torrents that I don't know which are TeamOS ones. Basically, how do I easily identify specific tracker .torrent files? Without going one by one, manually?

To get a list of torrent files including "teamos", open a command or powershell window and execute this command

findstr /S /I /M "teamos" c:\Users\????\AppData\Local\*.torrent

Replace ???? with your user name.

Does that help?

It's not user friendly but, fortunately, we don't need to work with the files directly very often.
Once upon a time I would have provided a script to copy just the TeamOS to a separate folder. Unfortunately my scripting is not just rusty, it seems to be totally seized up.

No, no, Charlie. I know where the .torrent files are. I just want to select only TeamOS ones...
Well, thank you guys.

Admins - please, keep this open for a day or two.
Thanks

That's what my command does. It lists only the .torrent files containing "teamos". At least that what it does for me.

I must have misunderstood you. I thought that you didn't have it. Could you PM me the link, please? ?

EDIT - oooh, yeah now see. Will try. Thanks!

EDIT no2 - @Charlie_Grimes Well, I got a list. Copied it to a .txt file. After re-installing will do one by one, LOL. Thanks, m8!

Admins/mods - for now the solution has been given. Consider leaving this open, maybe someone can make a script to copy those files that Charlie's command lists.

Thank you all!

mkrleza be carefuly buddy, not all teamos torrents have "teamos" in name of a torrent!​

I unsiezed my brain and came up with this script to save your TeamOS torrents. Save it in a text file with a .bat extension.
Change YourNameHere to your Windows user name.

@echo off
set UserName=YourNameHere
set destination= c:\Users\%UserName%\TeamOsTorrents
set list=%destination%\TeamOsTorrents.txt
echo Saving TeamOS torrents for %UserName% to %destination%
pause
if not exist %destination%\ (md %destination%)
findstr /S /I /M "teamos" c:\Users\%UserName%\AppData\Local\*.torrent > %list%
FOR /f  %%f IN (%destination%\TeamOsTorrents.txt) DO (copy %%f  %destination%)

That's good to know. I looked at a few and that was all I saw. What else might there be?

Edit:
I think I know what you're thinking.
It is not the name of the torrent I'm looking for in torrent files; it is the name of the tracker.
If there are torrent files with tracker names that don't include "teamos" then that would be a problem.

This is what I talking about >>

That is a reason why I have all in separate disk without using default torrent client folders! egg default will be appdata/temp or similar.
I use portable version µTorrent and just set >>

You must be registered for see links

and I am good because I do not need to click 1500+ X to have torrents on seed every time I reinstall OS.

But, for the naming torrent is good practice to have name of tracker in. But that is no case in TeamOS, at least not for ALL torrents.

EDIT> Just checked "little bit lower" on the list and find this >>

EDIT2> Tray with Total Commander show this >>

You must be registered for see links

actually, I have 1533 TeamOS torrents on this comp. and ONLY 147 of them have "TeamOS" in name
