If I receive a request to re seed a Torrent I open the Torrent in qBitTorrent and it just tries to download the metadata as no seeds are available.
I copy all of the data to a folder of the same name of the Torrent in the location where qBitTorrent places incomplete downloads.
I have all of the content saved so I try to open the destination folder doesn't work as the Torrent has not picked up.
I am unable to force a recheck as qBitTorrent refuses to check.

So I have all of the data saved ready to seed how do I get qBitTorrent to recognize that the data is there and check it and then start seeding the data?

Any assistance would be most welcome.

I use bittorrent so maybe not helpful...but...You usually have to load the magnet from a saved place you have and then direct that to the folder with the file in etc...?
NOT the place where the incomplete downloads are...but to the actual folder, in that place with incomplete downloads.:_pirate

Imagine your incomplete downloads place is a street...
and your actual folder(file data) is an address in that street...
You've pointed it to the street but it doesn't know which address (folder) it's going to...:_party:_:D

Sorted it out by changing the name in the Torrent name section.

Someone wanted me to seed Jersey Shore Family Vacation 2018 Season 5 Complete 720p AMZN WEBRip x264 [i_c]
Even though I copied the data to a drive and pointed qBitTorrent there it refused to work over and over.
Ended up unchecking save incomplete Torrent and changed the Torrent name to Season 5.
Worked a treat it immediately  did a check of the files and started to seed.

What a pain in the arse but anyway I know how to do it now.

Thanks everyone for your assistance.

cheers
