Most torrent client has similar preferences [options] ...
It might have been you incidentally set to start torrent automaticaly @ your download location preferences ...
To fix and undo your default location:
-
point your mouse on top left of the Options and click preferences, click UI settings un-check don't start torrent automatically and hit apply then OK ....

-
try to load/add a new torrent, the small blank box below must remain un-check in order to add torrent in different location
you can set your desired location by clicking on the downward right small arrow or find a destination by clicking the three vertical small dots

-
also you can set your download location by clicking Directories and check your preferred location and hit apply and OK to save changes ... ...

Hope this helps !!!
