uTorrent (or any other client) needs to check for the exact file or files (or copies) that the torrent was made from.

So for one file in a torrent you point uTorrent to that file.

If the torrent was made from a folder than you would need to have a folder for uTorrent to check.

In short, it doesn't matter where the files are as long as uTorrent can check them.

PS I hope that makes sense…

I have a question about uploading a torrent using utorrent.

If I made a torrent by adding files from a directory, can I remove the files from the directory into another location and redirect the torrent to look for the files at the new location?

In order to get your torrent to seed, it helps when you first put the contents of the torrent in your Downloads folder where uTorrent downloads to. Otherwise, you will need to point uTorrent to where the torrent's contents are located on your computer.

You don't give much information. It doesn't matter if the torrent file is in the folder, uTorrent will ignore it.

Are you sure you are pointing uTorrent at exactly the file or folder that the torrent file was made from? What status does uTorrent show for that torrent?
