Ubuntu – I can’t find the file ‘transmission’ on the computer with the search function

13.04bittorrentfirefoxsearchtransmission

I went to download a torrent today and Firefox asked me to choose an application to do so (although the bit torrent files normally go to transmission per the permissions I've set in Firefox). I go to search for transmission and the search function just turns up music files with the letters 'tran' in them. I'm very frustrated. I literally can't find the path to a file that's on my computer.

Best Answer

For the GTK+ client, all settings are kept in ~/.config/transmission

For the Daemon, all settings are kept in ~/.config/transmission-daemon

For the CLI, all settings are kept in ~/.config/transmission-cli

The default download folder is ~/Downloads

The transmission torrents file is located in ~/.config/transmission/torrents
