Seems to think I'm running on Windows 8 and won't install.

Post by Diablo23 »

Whenever I try to install qBittorrent, it crashes on setup. And when I troubleshoot it, it says "running compatibility mode for Windows 8", which is weird because I know for a fact that I'm on Windows 10 (22H2). Disabling anti-virus doesn't work. I'm not sure what to do anymore. Sorry I can't be more helpful...

Nvm. I got it to work. I had to get it from the Microsoft store. For some reason, downloading qBittorrent from the official website doesn't work. It always crashes at the license agreement page.

The Windows Store version is fake, be careful.

Are you running a regular Windows 10 Pro? LTSC? LTSC IOT?
