Summary

As the title says, When I try to set a new location for a torrent and I select "move data" also, it deletes multiple files.

I have two folders:

• /mnt/hdd/movies
• /mnt/hdd/episodes

With the following content:

• movies:
  -- movie1.mkv
  -- movie2.mkv
• episodes:
  -- episode1.mkv
  -- episode2.mkv
  -- movie3.mkv

Expected Behavior

Move movie3.mkv from /mnt/hdd/episodes to /mnt/hdd/movies successfully.

Current Behavior

Deletes files for some reason, ending up with the following structure (I do not have a possible explanation):

• /mnt/hdd/movies with the following content:
  -- episode1.mkv
  -- episode2.mkv
  -- movie3.mkv
• /mnt/hdd/episodes no longer exists

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go into Flood interface and search for movie3.mkv torrent
2. Right click > Set Torrent Location > write "/mnt/hdd/movies/"
3. Select "Move data"
4. Hit "Set location"
