rename directory does not work with 1.42

[firstcircle]

When I BT download and change the directory name to a different directory name, BitComet still creates the old directory name. I have been using BitComet for long time. This did not happen for previous versions.

Are you saying BitComet has an option to rename the directory? if so, I've never seen it.

Please see the attached the screen capture. When you create a new BT task, bitcomet lets you choose file name (I have circled it). If there are many files, it will be the directory name. But even I change the name, bitcomet still saves the files to the old name before I change it. This must be a new bug as I changed directory name in previous version and it worked.

Ermm... I think that you forgot to include the screenshot... :unsure:

I tried to upload and also tried to directly copy and paste into text. But somehow it just did not show up. I am uploading again. In case it still does not appear, it is very easy to find it. Just start any BT task. There will be a "Create new BitTorrent task" dialog. It has Location dropdrown list and Filename textbox. In the Filename text, you can change the file(directory) name of the downloaded file(s). It worked for previous versions. But it does not work in 1.42.

Here is an alternate way you can achieve this result. Create the new directory, then use bitcomet's option to move the files to that folder.
