4.1.4 crashes immediately on startup

Windows specific questions, problems.

Same problem for me with the added twist it seems to have done something to Firefox that prevents the download pop up dialogue from working (with .torrent, .exe, etc files). That or it is an amazing coincedence Firefox immediately stopped working properly after I installed 4.1.4. I can still manually add torrents to qbit and magnet links work at least.

edit: I found out the problem and remarkably, it was an amazingly strange coincedence. :o

You're not alone, and the problem is being looked into:

Crash on startup, just after updating to version 4.1.4
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/9865

Strangely, qBitTorrent 4.1.4 32bit version may not cause crashes...at least for some lucky people.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Also: WTH, I created an account here but the devs pay attention to Github instead?

Same here, win 10 x64, qBt force closes every time after updating, thought I was fucked but went back to 4.1.3 and works like a charm now. Glad to know I'm not the only one.

Confirming the issue on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, reverting to version 4.1.3 fixes the problem.

1 error can trigger what seems a bunch of "unrelated" problems and crashes posts, but the posters almost never compare notes...

Confirming crash on Win 10 x64 bit version. 32 bit version works fine.
Also if settings are cleared x64 version starts up happily. Adding torrents causes it to crash

Is this the new version of 4.1.4?
With the new version I have no problems.

Has this been resolved? or should I stick with 4.1.3?

Yet another one with this problem with 4.1.4 64bit.  So far I've solved it by installing 4.1.4 32bit version. (I had also went back to 4.1.3 64bit but got tired of the update nag screen.)

4.1.4 x64 works great here (the re-release, the first one was crashing each time). Been days since I use it without one issue. I'd try reinstalling and make sure it's the last version.
