qBittorrent Reviews

good

Search doenst work, cause the programm wants to install pythos by windowsstore. Python all versions already installed, but due to Dev script it cant work without dual install python by store NO, dont install aids or by aids methode. MAKE QBIT GREAT AGAIN and rewrite script losers!

Awesome program. A fork of qBittorrent, that is easy and simple to use should be made, off course, while keeping the current version in development too. For basic users that don't understand trackers and advanced options. Maybe there would be an entry in the toolstrip menu of the simple program to open a window of advanced options (with a warning that it's advanced options).

Good software

I used it with such ease

When attempting to install version 5.2.3, Windows 11 Defender triggers and prevents the new version from being installed. Please fix this. The same thing happened with version 2.2.1. Everything was fine in version 5.2.2. In this version, SmartScreen is once again preventing the program from being updated. Please fix this problem in future versions.

Even though I rarely use a torrent client, this program is good.

Hi there, I'm another consumer who had the exact same problem as you with the Smart Screen filter blocking the qBittorrent 5.2.1 update on Windows 11. I'm the one who figured out that you just need to click "More info" and then "Run anyway" – that lets the installation continue just fine. That said, I also had a different issue that you didn't mention: after the installation finished and the program was already running, the installer window stayed open. Clicking "Finish" did nothing – it just wouldn't close. I had to kill the process via Task Manager. That part only happened to me, not to you. Hopefully the developers fix the Smart Screen warning (maybe a signing issue) so it works as smoothly as before. And if they could also look into the installer not closing properly, that would be great. Thanks for raising this! – Another user

I have been using qBittorrent for donkeys years and it is bulletproof. An absolutely brilliant piece of software. Great work! Thank you!

Version 5.2.0 refuses to launch. Much like other reviews, I have reverted back to the previous version and it now works fine again. Really good product otherwise.

For 5.2.0, like others I was not able to successfully start it. Fixed it by going to my roaming app data folder and deleting a file called "lockfile". C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\qBittorrent. Started fine after that.

I was able to install v5.2.0 but it would not start no matter what I tried so I reverted to the previous version which works fine as always.

It's great but can't update to the latest version 5.2.0. The file downloads but setup fails. Reverted to previous version 5.1.4. A quick bit of info, even though I've closed the programme I find that I have to go into Task Manager, search for any instances of qBittorent and end task otherwise Windows blocks the setup. 5.2.0 setup just doesn't work whatever I try.

FINALLY! A version that isn't blocked by Windows Defender! 5.2.1 is a winner! It's a good program but I can't currently install the latest version , my Windows PC blocks the download when I try to install it. It can't identify the validity and thus the legitimacy of the file. So I can't upgrade from my current version

Good

I think qBittorrent is solid—lightweight, ad-free, and reliable. It has all the essentials like RSS, prioritization, and IP filtering without the bloat of other clients. Perfect for casual and power users alike.

The best torrent client out there.

Even though I rarely use a torrent client, this program is good.

Well i can say this is the best Torrent client out there. No Ads, Better UI and available in multiple platforms except Android which is a bit of a bummer. Dev's release a version for android too :)

qBittorrent is one of the best torrent clients I have used. It is fast, lightweight and completely free without ads. The interface is simple and easy to understand even for new users. Download and upload speed is very stable and it does not use too much system resources. I like that it is open source and feels safe compared to many other torrent apps. Features like search, bandwidth control and magnet links work very well. Overall it does exactly what it promises without unnecessary things

It works very well, it's fast and comfortable

A overall nostalgic software , i still use this as a go to movie downloader it has improved a lot over the years can stress enough the easy UX experience and the downloading speeds. highly recommended

Best BT client. Deep-in settings especially the network interface selection is great for privacy.

Mon préféré. Je l'utilise depuis une bonne douzaine d'année. RAS, cela marche très bien. Installer le moteur de recherche et rajouter des greffons. C'est proposé dans l'interface, pas besoin de fouiller dans la doc. My favorite. I've been using it for a good dozen years. RAS, it works very well. Install the search engine and add plugins. It's offered in the interface, no need to dig through the docs.
