qBittorrent official forums

The "Search Engine" has disappeared. It tells me that Python is not installed; I click on "Install" and I get the following message:
Python is required to use the search engine but it does not seem to be installed.
Do you want to install it now?
I install it, but it is still the same. The Search Engine does not appear.
Thank you.

1) Have you tried to install a QBittorrent update to the most recent build?
It usually works.

2) Or the issue appeared just after installing an update to the most recent build?
Search your PC to see if you have the installer for the last build that worked, uninstall the app completely and re-install it form this build that worked. If this works, ignore the update suggestion until the build offered in the suggestion is newer than the one that caused the issue. Then, please update

3) If none of the above work, the last resource is an hybrid: Remove completely the app, as described in (2), and install the most recent build, as described in (1).

The runtime Python needed for QBittorrent (I think) is fully working and embedded in the app itself, so it should not be needed to manually install nothing Python related. Maybe some of the runtime elements created during installation became corrupt somehow.

I hope it helps. If not, I'm completely sure that someone will gladly and kindly bring the help you need.

Best regards
