I/O Error when downloading to a network drive

Post by mrflibble13 »

When I start a torrent, with the location being my network drive, I keep getting an I/O error and can't download it. The torrent works fine when downloading directly to my hard drive.

Version number, be precise please, not just "the latest", and details of the error from the execution log are required before anyone can provide any real help.

And you said that qBittorrent 3.1.x supports network locations?
You have 2 options:
1. Wait for qBittorrent 3.2.0 to be released (it has support for network locations)
2. Map you network drive to a drive letter(eg G: ) and continue using qBittorrent 3.1.x as normal.

Well you have a 3rd option too. Use the 3.2.0alpha builds from here: http://qbforums.shiki.hu/index.php/topi ... l#msg11387
