The 'default directory' is the directory into which Vuze will automatically place the downloaded data files when a new torrent is opened.

By default, Vuze generates the value for the default directory option at initial setup. The value will be the subdirectory 'Vuze Downloads' placed into your OS user profile home directory.

  • In Windows Vista and 7 that usually corresponds to C:Users<YourUsername>DocumentsVuze Downloads
  • In Windows XP it usually corresponds to C:Documents and Settings<YourUsername>My documentsVuze Downloads
  • Note: leaving that directory inside your Windows user profile may lead into a growing Windows user profile, and that may cause trouble especially in a corporate environment. Consider manually creating a new directory outside your user profile, e.g. C:VuzeDownloads.
