qBittorrent console command after download does not work (automatic rar unpack)

Post by Moosisaiake »

Hey! I'm not sure if it's a bug or maybe I am doing something wrong.

I want to automatically unpack all rar files after a torrent download is completed.

I found this command to put under Downloads settings:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" e "%F\*.rar" -o"%F\"
This command works - if I check qbittorrent.log after then it says that it ran the external command and if I copy the command with the used variables to cmd - it works.

But when qBittorrent actually completes a torrent and tries to run it itself - it does not work. I have checked "show console window" from the settings and it only flashes the command prompt and then it's gone.

And it does not run the command shown in the log... Or at least it doesn't start the unpacking.
