Hi to all qBittorrent devs and users.

I was thinking.. And this is just an idea but anyway..

Wouldn't it be nice if we had an official simple transfer tool for new users that come from uTorrent? You know, that can be downloaded at the Download page or something.

At the forums an user named Danzig has made one back in March 2015 (outdated, but seems to work still) but I think that it can be improved especially simplified for new users that want a fast and clean switch. Like for example this new user that just replied: https://qbforums.shiki.hu/index.php/topic,3224.msg25595.html#msg25595.

As its been a while I read that topic and I never used that tool its hard for me to help this user so I hope someone that did use it can help him or he can read the whole topic and maybe get something done himself. And thats exactly my idea behind this issue/wishlist.

Some useful links:

I have no idea if this fork of the original works or what it may have accomplished but it was updated in August 2017.

Last time I used this program it worked for me, but for many people hard to use it - it's not, but for basic users it is - and many people can't switch from uTorrent to qBittorrent because of this (although they would, if there would be a "next-next-finish" option), so a built in option would be nice.
