[official]qBittorrent 3.0.11 installer - Built with MSVC 2008 and uTP support

[Nemo]

Back from vacation and testing RC5 immediatly; seems pretty stable for now, imma keep using it till something goes wrong which I think there won't. v2.9.11 works also fine. Thanks alot for your effort sledge.

Do you have some kind of debug build I can test? Because lack of responses suggests that none of the devs can test qBt on Win7 x64...

Sorry I forgot about your problem. I thought I fixed that problem because someone else had reported it. It was an error in my installer that made the startup shortcut to qbittorrent.exe look like this: "<path-to-qbt-folder>\qbittorrent.exe 0" and qbt thought was a file.

Do you use rc5? If yes, please tell me how that error appears. Does it appear only when you start qbt from the start menu? If yes, can you check the command that is used in the shortcut and see if it has something unusual? (left click properties).

Sledge im having that issue also with a popup coming up when starting qBittorrent saying ''torrent does not exist'' message. Im not sure how it came but when I installed the rc5 for the first time I didn't had this message but now (even when qBittorrent is empty without torrents loaded) the message comes everytime at startup. I tried your suggestion but no luck. By the way im on W7 32Bit right now. Other than this anything else seems working fine.

I use RC5. Current default path looks like this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\qBittorrent\qbittorrent.exe" 0
Obviously 0 shouldn't be there...
After installing qBT I usually use "pin" shortcut to whatever taskbar or start menu and launch it from there when needed. Ahaha lol. So THATS where the problem was... never though of that! Oo
Last build I tried that have this issue is the one from Sourceforge, but builds from other people also suffered from this issue. Same for previous stables from sourceforge.

Oh yes removing the 0 fixed this problem! It was ''"C:\Program Files\qBittorrent\qbittorrent.exe" 0 but after removing the 0 the problem is solved .

[sledgehammer_999]

@NeMo_0 I am a little consufed! You said you use rc5 and had the "0" problem. But I know that my installer script was fixed for rc5. How the hell did the shortcut end up having a "0" at the end? Any ideas?

@Endymion so now you have fixed the problem, right?

[Nemo]

Yes sledge im on RC5 and had this issue. To fully confirm this im doing a clean install right now and see if it happens again. Therefore I had done clean install also upgrading from v2.9.7. Will be back on this.

EDIT: Did a clean install and the issue is gone. The weird thing is that I don't had this issue and it suddenly appeared out of nothing with RC5, will see if it happens again now.

Yes the issue fixed. But still better recheck if the installer doesn't adds this 0. Whatever RC4 or RC5 does this.

However I found that qBt returns the same error when i try to open .torrent file (by double-clicking on it) that contains symbol " ? " in filename. This is not slash, its a different division sign. Can this be fixed somehow? It have no problems when opening file from within the application.

Can you post the torrent or a link to it?

Well, I can create one for you... but all you need is to do is to change name of any .torrent file by including this symbol. The symbol I posted in this forum is a correct one so you can copy it. Its U+2215 in unicode.
EDIT: actually there is another one U+2044
I Attached torrent file to this message (in 7zip archive just in case, cause forum may alter these slashes or whatever).
Just for reference, "classic" slash that is not allowed to use in paths and filenames is U+002f
Some other clients doesn't suffer from this issue so I guess its a bug.

[sledgehammer_999]

I double click on it and it opens up fine. I cannot reporoduce. And I have no idea what instructions I could give you to try and debug it...

This sounds like an issue I'm describing on the previous forum page (reply #195).  I get the "torrent file does not exist" error on torrents with asian characters, which prevents me from simply clicking its torrent link on a web page to open it in qBittorrent.  I have to manually download the torrent file, rename it, then double click it.

You could also easily test this yourself by renaming a torrent file, like you two are describing.  Instead of copy and pasting that slash, try copy and pasting this "?????" as the torrent filename. Then double click the file.  qBittorrent will throw the "This torrent file does  not exist" error.  Then rename the file to only contain english characters like "Berserk", double click it and qBittorrent will open the file.

What you say is similar to the issue I'm talking about, however I have no problems with asian characters. These slashes are the only ones I found not working so far.
Maybe this is because my system uses japanese locale, I don't know. Check if this happens for you on something newer than windows XP (cause XP is a pain when it comes to unicode)
EDIT: also I don't know if it is relevant or not but my default windows font is Meriyo UI. It displays Japanese and English characters. On English windows default font is Segoe UI and afaik it uses font fallback system to display asian characters because it doesn't have its own. So if you on english locale, durring font fallbacking these slashes maybe displayed differently, or maybe not... my knowledge is limited by this amount of info only.

"Limit Download SPEED DOES NOT WORK anymore" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i tried on several torrents and NADA !!!!! i wanted to limit the speed i was downloading at...but REALLY it is not working!!!! regarding upload speed i can't say..as nobody is taking from my torrents;
