qBittorrent official forums

It appears that all my existing search plugins from 4.x are no longer valid in the new update and that there are no available search plugins for 5.0. Is this correct?
I use the search feature often and will roll back to the last 4.x if I have to wait to all the existing search plugins to be updated to 5.0.

Not correct. I clicked Search for updates and all the plugins function fine.

And I did a search for plugin updates and received "plugin is not supported" for every one of them. I also downloaded new python files and received the same message when trying to add them.

On Reddit they said you might have an incompatible plugin that broke things. Tokyotoshokan is one of such.
They are here: %LOCALAPPDATA%\qBittorrent\nova3

I'll delete all the existing files and then re-add them to see if that works.

Thanks!

Deleting all the plugins did not work.
I completely wiped using Geek Uninstaller and reinstalled 5.0.0. I still had the same problem.
I again uninstalled 5.0.0 and dropped back to 4.6.7 (64), added in some plugins and they were fine.
I'll stick with 4.6.7 for the time being.

Same problem here. Uninstalled 5.0 with Iobit Uninstaller, even checked register for remaining keys and deleted them. Reinstalled 5.0, but problem remains.

I was able to fix this by uninstalling Python, restarting, and then installing the latest Python. Hopefully this can save people the trouble of going through what the rest of us have (uninstalling and reinstalling various versions of qBt).

So I deleted 5.0 and reinstalled 4.6.7, waiting for 5.1...

I had the latest Python installed...

i've followed the same steps as you. no joy for me either.

I also updated my Python 3.8 to 3.12 and that solves the problem.
