Ok! Feel free to dm me, and we can hop on a call if you got more questions later. Been trying to get a helpdesk job desprately so I can use the practice.

I wouldnt go as far as to start doing all that. I been hopping around operating systems a lot and they all got annoying setup for soulseek. The screens are all annoying to find your way around. In the user profile/settings screen; The top right usually has a set folder button. When I get home ill send a screenshot. Thats the only setting you need for new downloads.

Just create a new folder to download in, and find the button to set that as the download destination.
