Is there a settings.json in the /addons-config/Transmission/ folder? That's the one you should be changing. The other one is now unused.

Why can't you copy the files to the new folder? Do you get an error?
There are 2 way to get your old torrents back:
1) You'll need to move all the *.torrent files in /addons-config/Transmission/transmission-daemon/torrents to /addons-config/Transmission/torrents and change your download dir to point to the old folder.
2) Edit the /etc/frontview/addons/bin/TRANSMISSION/start.sh and change TRANSMISSION_HOME=/c/addons-config/Transmission to TRANSMISSION_HOME=/c/addons-config/Transmission/transmission-daemon (and also remember to do so each time you upgrade the addon).
Option 1) is the preferable one.
There is a settings.json file in the transmission folder, but this cannot be edited. I tried that without succes.
When I want to copy files it gives the error that the disk is full or protected against copying.
The strange thing is that Transmission was not working correct, but after editting the file in the transmission-daemon folder it did work... so it almost seems that this folder still is used.
I am at work now so I cannot test your option 2, but I will do this this afternoon. I will keep you posted.
