Qbittorrent Not Working Windows 11

[Kayla Munl]

Id say, there's definitely a QT-related issue, I wonder why no one speaks about that. QT Creator window is invisible, without any significant errors in terminal. Picture view windows in Telegram are also invisible. All after latest QT update.

Yes. Fortunately I have only qBittorrent as Qt6 application. I installed it from Flatpak and uninstalled it from upstream with all related Qt packages. To me it's resolved, but yes, there's still an issue with upstream Qt outside Plasma.

FWIW, I tried all the QT/KDE apps I have installed on my laptop and all work perfectly, QT Designer included (I don't have QT Creator, sorry). I installed qbittorrent just to try it and it also works perfectly fine as do all other QT6 apps I tried. My system is fully updated with KDE 6.0.3 - QT 6.7 - kernel 6.8.5 and so on.

No messages at all. Nothing in journalctl as well. Just no main window for application, however some windows are working (calibre loading screen, qbittorent modal dialog "Are you sure want to exit..")

gnome-shell, wayland session

I tried qBittorrent with both qadwaitadecoration and the default (the one ugly without borders). They are not working, unless you switch to xWayland or use the Flatpak version (which I suppose it's built against the previous Qt release).

Same problem (invisible window) with Strawberry and OBS Studio on Gnome Wayland. I have added QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb to /etc/environment file, restarted Gnome Wayland session, and said apps work as expected since then. I use another computer running Plasma 6 Wayland and the same apps and qBittorrent run natively on Wayland without any problem on it.

Recently I installed BitComet. Now when I click a torrent magnet link from chrome it opens with BitComet though I changed the settings of BitComet to not to be the default program to open magnet links. I couldn't find default magnet link settings in μTorrent. I want my default program to open magnet links to be μTorrent.I'm using Windows 8.1 and my browser is Chrome, I want to make the default program to open magnet links to be μTorrent.

The problem is that windows is missing some registry stuff for magnet links. In most torrent programs, you can check some option to make your program the preferred magnet handler. Checking that option adds the needed registry info. But Deluge doesn't have any such option.

This will result in nothing happening when you click magnet links. The reason it doesn't work, is because there's a few other details that need to go into the magnet subkey in the registry. There's two ways to add those details. The easy way is to just install a modern torrent client like qbittorrent. The necessary registry stuffs will be created. then you can change the registry path so that it points to Deluge insead of QBittorent.

I have a LOT of legitimate and huge torrenting, for example from uvisound where they provide their sound libraries that I pay good money for via torrent and this is a dealbreaker if I can no longer have nord and qbitorrent communicating and working together. Right now I am off the VPN not to cause any possible security flags on my eset account here, but 99% of the time the VPN is always on and for web browsing and other applications it hasn't been an issue.

I also tried disabling eset firewall which I really didn't want to do, as windows firewall will NOT re enable when I do this like I expected it to. It only gives me the option to turn on eset firewall again, so basically my system had zero firewall for the 10 minutes I tried this and I got very uncomfortable so I re enabled eset.

Edit, I had to do the image captcha a third time to create my account,. 3 times in 5 minutes. You don't think this is a little bit of overkill? I bought ESET to have convenience of an all in one app. If I have to do this every single time I have an issue I certainly find that inconvenient.

First I just want to say that after my topic, 10 minutes after, it suddenly started working and I am getting full speed downloads in Qbittorrent, so this topic can effectively be closed. I have absolutely no idea what happened but after two system restarts it seems ok.

About captcha , it's because of your nord , it shows more captcha because you are using the NordVPN , thinking that you are spammer or coming to abuse , because from VPN IPs comes lot of abuse to companies sometimes.

Yes I am used to Malwarebytes which is super simple and I used that in combination with windows firewall control. It was just a lot less clicks to get to firewall rules, for example, and disable or enable programs. But no big deal.

I was actually a bitdefender total user but I had a nightmare scenario where it got stuck in a false positive loop (there was not actually a single infected file on my system) and hosed my entire computer. Support took a week to reply and apologised then took even longer the next time, so I uninstalled, demanded a refund, restored my computer image and have been using MWB ever since without issue. Just that on my new laptop I wanted an "all in one" so chose Eset and will put it on my desktop as well.

I know it probably doesn't matter, but just for the sake of accuracy, the VPN was disabled as noted in my first comment, when I entered the forums. But now the images captcha seems to have stopped, so it seemed I just had to do it cause I was a new user.

Recently I installed qBitTorrent so I could download some episodes of a Creative Commons-licensed TV series. I simply used apt-get install qbittorrent, ran qbittorrent, then added the torrent files, and pressed "start". I noticed that the series would take too long to download, so I quit qBitTorrent when it was at 10%. The next day, I launched qBitTorrent again, and was surprised to find the downloads complete. Either the 2.5 GBs downloaded within 3 seconds or something else occurred.

qBitTorrent has a mode where it is minimized in the notification area. If you go to the Options, then in the Behaviour tab, you will see a tree of checkboxes reading "Show qBit in notification area", and "Close qBit to notification area". This is the only way for qBittorrent to keep operating if you click the close button.

I use qBittorrent, and to the best of my knowledge, that is not the case. When the qBittorrent GUI is not running, it is not engaging in any sneaky file uploads and downloads behind your back. If it did, frankly, that would be a bit bananas, and violate the principle of least surprise along with just plain normal, ordinary, common-sensical user expectation.

You can easily run something that tracks network activity. iftop comes to mind. That should show you if anything is going on. It is possible that the behavior of qBittorrent has changed dramatically since the version I am using.I hope not, but it is always possible for developers to go insane.

I have been using Qbittorrent on windows and most definitely after I quit it remains active, but there is no trace of it on the desktop except among the running processes in Win 10.I don't run it on Linux, so I don't know the difference between the two, but on Windows 10 Qbittorrent never really quits. I have to restart to make sure it's not in the background.Additionally, it doesn't seem to respond to a Force Quit either. It just sits there, consuming 0% CPU like a ghost.

to no avail. anyway i can clear this up? My containers are running on a synology for now, and i am accessing via windows, but intend to switch to linux as soon as I have all my containers setup properly on the synology.

edit2: moving qbittorrent to bridge network yielded the same exact result, except I lose direct access to the openvpn via network interface, thus requiring either a new/altered method of accessing VPN for torrent data. Bridge qbittorrent was just a duplicate of the host qbittorrent.
