(Sorry for the delay.) A recheck alone will not suffice; qBittorrent is no longer looking in the right location, so it assumes all files are now missing. > *Kindly explain: > "manually rename the directory to whatever libtorrent is expecting". Once qBittorrent has begun re-downloading the files, it will create them at their new location. Simply replace them with the old (good) copies, and qBittorrent will be happy again. For example, let's say you have two (100% complete) torrents: one with files under "Something/", and one with files under "Something else/". After restarting qBittorrent, the "Something else" torrent is now at 0%. Once that torrent has begun downloading again, you will notice that qBittorrent has started creating files under "Something/else/" instead. (Notice the extra directory level.) This is where qBittorrent is now looking, therefore this is where you want to relocate the files. Pause the torrent, delete the new (0%) directory, move the old one to this location, and force a recheck. > *I changed the location via set location, but to no avail.* Note that if you attempt to correct the location by setting it back to its previous value, you will most likely trigger that bug again. It's probably easiest to not struggle, and simply accept the new location of your files. :) (Once that bug is fixed, you could always delete and re-add the torrent, renaming the files back to their old location.)
