Awesome, thanks!

[s4nder]

Thanks, but I'm still getting I/O errors all over the place. What a nasty bug.

Welcome back

Welcome back sledge! Downloading v2.8.4 right away !

Edit: Works great like always.

@s4nder: Did you do a clean install? deleted really everything from the old qBittorrent? Folders C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Local\qBittorrent and C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Roaming\qBittorrent? Also look inside Program Files and delete that one too after uninstall. It must work cause I had the same problem with the old release but after v2.8.2 its fixed since then, running W7 32bit at the moment. You can try to clean your registry with Free Registry Cleaner to delete any left overs from previous installs. By the way this program is safe to use im using it for years now.

So far so good, I haven't extensively used it but I was actually able to download something now (previous builds would I/O error as soon as the torrents start).

Win7 64bit

[s4nder]

Yeah, admittedly I just installed it over 2.7.3 I had been using previously. I'll try a complete fresh reinstall tomorrow.

[Rastaman]

Now I'm getting some kind of memory I/O error.

And now the torrents won't even start, always "stalled" whatever that means. No information in the Execution Log whatsoever.

lol this is starting to become too much trouble.

Edit: Oh, and when deleting torrents from the list and check marking to delete data the the HDD... it never does. Doesn't even work

[catweazle]

Have updated my portable qBittorrent, has been running all day now.
I have stopped using uTorrent now completely.
Looking forward to upcoming releases !

@s4nder: Forgot to mention, if you can't find those folders they might be hidden so you have to untick show hidden files and maps in windows options.

@Rastaman: Weird,, All does work properly here. You could/should try my advice few posts above too, I had those I/O problems also but fixed it.

Yea I did that when I first installed it. However, it just started to do it as the day went on and as I used it more. I'm not gonna do this every single time an error pops up, it needs to be addressed in the program itself if it's a bug.

[loki]

No, this HAS to be an isolated 64-bit problem... I await the fix. I will unfortunately not even bother trying this build. 2.8.1.1 has been working perfectly fine for me. It's when I start uninstalling/reinstalling it I start getting the I/O errors again... including version 2.7.3!

And yes, before you even ask, a truly clean install was performed between any of these steps with immediate repeatable results. What a pain to chase down all these files in hidden folders and such and delete them between installs and have to set all my program settings back again. And to have it still cause errors after all that... then do all those steps again and have it make the I/O errors again with the fresh install of the one that was previously working without error to come back with errors.

[Nemo]

Well im forcing nobody to try a clean install the right way, not everyone is doing it how its supposed to be thats why I put it here. Then its certainly a 64bit problem if it still exist, nothing I can do. Only thing is to post it at launchpad maybe.

[s4nder]

I removed all the roaming and local folders, did a registry clean and reinstalled. The problem persists even with completely new downloads. Went back to uTorrent for now though that regularly kicks my gateway offline. I don't know what to use anymore, heh.

[sledgehammer_999]

From the reports we should consider that the problem persists.
Also, I don't think that removing the application settings/configs is required.
If I recall correctly qbittorrent when compiled with libtorrent 0.15.5 didn't have this problem(at least noone reported any). I will built qbt 2.8.4 against libtorrent 0.15.5 and let you test it guys.
