Transferring Computers

Hi! >_<

I'm in a pinch right now. I'm supposed to transfer and backup all my files into an external hard drive because I need to have my computer reformatted due to viruses. However, being the noob that I am, I don't know how to do that properly without losing the ability to seed them back.

I'm scared that if I move the files I won't be able to seed them back up properly. I want to seed my files back up when the computer is done reformatting, but I can't access my current torrent files without the browser thingy crashing on me - they're on my Downloads folder, and opening that folder seems to make my document brower crash by itself @_@. Sooo yeah.

I need help~ (insert panic smiley here) Does anyone have a step-by-step solution for this? How am I supposed to seed the downloaded files back if I do not have the original torrent files? Does re-downloading the torrent files work? I've tried searching the net for help but I'm not getting any results - or maybe I'm looking for the wrong thing? If you could just please point me to the right direction, I would be really grateful.

Thank you!

Have you tried cleaning your system instead of reformatting it?
There are LOTS of freeware programs that can do it more or less reliably if you do it properly.
For example:

or (if you don't mind trialware):

I did, but the viruses apparently messed with my registry keys. @_@ No other solution other than to reformat. *sigh*
Thanks for the advice anyway!

AHHH! THANK YOU! THANKYOUTHANKYOUUU SLASHA! DEFINITELY A LIFESAVER! XD 

Freedom Kira:
Well, a suitable solution would be to restore the registry keys by using a restore point. That is, unless you're running something old enough to not use restore points... Windows 98, perhaps?

BTW, you were supposed to read the Wiki before posting in this forum, among other things. For most torrent problems on BBT, searching the net shouldn't be the first step... >.>
