Category Moved Torrent Folder Overwrites Data NUL. Why? Any Fix?
Tixati 2.43 Portable on External HDD
E:\APPS\Tixati\downloads\CategoryX\"Torrent Folder Name\Files" - 4GB data
E:\APPS\Tixati\downloads\CategoryY\"Torrent Folder Name" - Empty folder
Torrent was CATEGORY MOVED via TIXATI UI from X to Y.
In hindsight I should've removed the Empty Folder of same name.
Now I wonder if in such operations the CATEGORY MOVE does an OVERWRITE or what? SHOULD IT ASK IF EXISTING folder should be over written etc.?
Well, Apparently now I have
E:\APPS\Tixati\downloads\CategoryX\ - Folder is gone/ moved
E:\APPS\Tixati\downloads\CategoryY\"Torrent Folder Name" - It has 4GB data with all Files and Folders from the torrent... with the size & space on DISK AS WELL.
BUT.. Forced Check/ Verify of Torrent & its files fails completely.. So to check i opened some .TXT files.
BUT.. The files are full of NULL - How do I know? I opened some .TXT / Files and in Notepad all I see is..
NUL NUL NUL NUL NUL NUL
NUL NUL NUL NUL NUL NUL
What happened?
Why?
Any way I can fix this? Any recovery mechanism or I have to redownload this torrent?
To avoid such NAME OVERLAP driven OVERWRITES what can we do in the future?

Yes, emopty.
Yes, complete - thats why I was reorganizing / trying to move categories/ folders.
No Error, it just would not verify the files and I had to ReDownload the entire torrent.
