qBittorrent as default application for magnet links in OS X

Post by GuidC0DE »

I can't set qBittorrent as default magnet link handler. There is no option in settings to do that. I'm using Folx as regular file downloader and now it catches magnet links, but I don't want that. If I remove Folx, magnet links processed by qBittorrent, but after installing Folx it become default handler again. I think it would be nice feature in qBittorrent's settings to make it default. But for now how can I fix it manually? Maybe there is some settings file in OS X? I've found in internet that there is file ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.plist that has different handlers (for magnet protocol too). But I can't find it in El Capitan. I've found ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices/com.apple.launchservices.secure.plist. But after viewing it's content I've not found record about magnet protocol.

Nope, just in whatever browser you happen to be using.
