Re: Verifying PGP Signature to be 100% positive I'm downloading what I intend to.

Ha, this always comes up. I always test it myself, it works for me and it doesn't for the user. Not sure what to tell ya. - get the sig from website - import sig with gpg - grab the installer you'd like - grab the signature for the installer - check gpg --verify - it's OK, "Good signature"...

Re: Remove a tracker from thousands of torrents

I think this feature is in work in progress, because I saw it in the translation strings.
I can't give you an ETA though.

For now just disable AV notifications - I just put my AV on silent mode and call it a day.
Some trackers will always be unreachable so don't worry about 1-2 missing.

Re: backing up qbittorrent while it's running ?

I mean i copy these folders : c:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\qBittorrent c:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\qBittorrent Ah I understand. Yes, please shut qBittorrent down to make a full backup. But, you usually don't need to make one. You could also make a .bat file to ... 1) Do backup 2) Start qBittorrent 3...

Re: backing up qbittorrent while it's running ?

Could you clarify what do you mean by "backing up"?


You can use ChatGPT and DeepL too, they do a better job at translation.

Re: Some torrents stall

I mean its mostly the trackers fault not qBittorrent's.
qBittorrent cannot just assume so and hammer the tracker because then it'd end up on the banned client's list.
It's a delicate situation.

But users can always decide to hammer it and they may or may not get caught.

Re: qBittorrent-IPV6-UDP-dns解析缓慢and不支持IPV6地址直达

It is not qBittorrent. I am 99.99999999999999% sure. Again, qBittorrent itself does NOT have any kind of networking code. - It relies on Qt solely - It only updates DynDNS via code - libtorrent is the library doing all the heavy lifting in the background For example: https://github.com/arvidn/libtor...

Re: Out of alphabetical order

It orders by the column you click.
So just simply click "Name" and they become Alphabetical order.

You can also right click a column and you get a lot of other column options too, like "Completion Date" and whatnot to help you organize.

Good luck!

Um, but 4.6.2 didn't work for me. Oh shoot sorry I missed that little unimportant detail... /s You could check Event Viewer. Press WIN+X and then Event Viewer. In Application maybe.

Re: 4.6.1 Installer Does Nothing

I mean, I am 100% for fixing bugs but 4.6.1 at this point is just.. obsolete. It was not like a major release or a final release before a major new version; but a small hotfix. So I would not worry too much about it if 4.6.2 works fine.

Re: Sorting of columns in the "TRACKERS" tab.

I tried doing this. It's not easy to implement AT ALL. Like it's really really really complicated and gets messed up real fast. Why, you ask? Because of tracker tiers. You see those two arrows on the right? The ones I never noticed? Yes. Those. If you implement sortable columns, tier changing functi...

Re: Can not downlöoad from PirateBay

This is basic torrenting issue not qBittorrent related. - the torrent might not have enough seeds - the torrent might not have any working trackers left - your firewall in your OS might block qbt - your router might have a buggy UPnP and thus you can't DHT/PEX properly - your av software firewall is...

qBittorrent relies on libtorrent ( https://libtorrent.org/ & https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent ) for this functionality... or Qt. I am 99% sure libtorrent is at fault here so to speak, because I just checked and qBittorrent only does DynDNS work and nothing else. Please check their Github iss...

Re: 4.6.1 Installer Does Nothing

Hmm thank you. This remains a mystery. I tested on 3 Win11 PCs and all of them starts both lt20 and regular 4.6.1 installers. It's Windows after all. :)
