If you can't recover the original torrent files/magnet links or .fastresume files (either via a backup or by running a file recovery tool on your disk), you can always do the following:

  • download the torrent files again and add them to qBittorrent, setting the download location to where you actually have the downloaded content files. qBittorrent will recheck the torrent and start seeding immediately if all files are present. If you have renamed any files, you'll have to rename them back, otherwise qBittorrent will think you deleted them and will start downloading them again with the original names in the torrent.
