qBittorrent official forums

I want qBittorrent to stop all downloading/uploading between a certain time each day.

I have noticed there is an "Alternative Global Rate Limits" section, but I can't make this 0 KB/s, only 1 KB/s.

Any ideas?

This way surely isn't elegant as setting the alternative speed to 0 but if all else fails..

Open Notepad and paste the following code:
  taskkill /IM qbittorrent.exe
Then save it as "somename.bat" With the quotes, in the place of your choosing. via http://www.khimhoe.net/2009/08/18/how-t ... matically/
and then set it to be executed in task scheduler, at the time you want to close qbittorrent
and then you can set another task to start qbittorrent at the time you wish.

I haven't tested it, i just googled this when i read your post, dunno if it works.

I read somewhere that taskkill KILLS the program, ie the program doesnt get a chance to close gracefully (save its work)
but i dont know if that applies on torrent programs..

Either way you better wait some more feedback

It was discussed before... people who have bandwidth restrictions within a certain amount of time of day, best case scenario is to close or find a way to close the program (gracefully) during those times because even if you set it to 0, it still has to keep the torrents active which does use bandwidth too not to mention DHT, if you keep it running.

See this, my specific reply http://qbforums.shiki.hu/index.php?topi ... 00#msg4100
Also suggest using your OS's schedule task of when to open possibly close within time constraints might be more graceful than taskkill.

Also look up the close command, this is probably the "more graceful" way of closing a program on Windows.
