I'd like to be able to relocate every file separately. As far as I know (I can be wrong), the only relocate feature is pretty much reassigning the new download location for the whole torrent content, then doing a force recheck.

No news on this... everyone has been bragging about how qBittorrent is better than uTorrent or BitTorrent but at least you are able to do this with those applications.

When I get some files, I need to put them in folders in a specific structure to be able to use those file with Plex scanning system. I put files in Season 01/Season02/Specials/etc. folder. The moment additional seasons or extra contents are bundled in a torrent, I can't distribute the files in different folders and it makes it impossible to seed the torrent. That is where I'm forced to use uTorrent because at least it can do that.

In uTorrent, you can right-click any file and ''Relocate'' the file, if it has been moved for example. A feature like that would be awesome for qBittorrent.

I've waited for years the implementation of "relocate" feature of any sort.
Will there be one eventually?
