When renaming a file with a name that contains " / " the generated folder drives Windows 10 crazy #15378
Comments
Do you mean the torrents that are currently selected for downloading (i.e. top in download queue) but really have no connected peers?
Why this action should override download queue? Maybe someone doesn't want this? You can move it up in the queue in the case it's really needed. I don't think it should be done by default.
Don't understand really what do you mean.
The "Add new torrent" dialog is used to choose some initial options of torrent before torrent is added (or cancel adding it if you want). You can disable this dialog in application preferences so your torrents will be added to the list with default options. |
Do you use "Do not count slow torrents in those limits"? That option is capped by "Max active torrents" so set it to -1 (for infinite) if you want all torrents to have a chance to start downloading (eventually). If you already do this, i can't imagine what else you expect from the queue system.
Related/duplicate of #15227
Has been asked before but i can't find it.
Duplicate of #11599
For some reason it uses a custom stylesheet. Removing the following seems to fix it but i don't know why it was introduced or if it's the right solution so i'll leave it alone: qBittorrent/src/gui/addnewtorrentdialog.ui Lines 267 to 269 in b924357
I think it's about time we rename that column to "Queue" or "Queue Position". /Off topic
and about duplicates. |
Hm... Sorry for not finding the duplicates and for the multiple issues reported here. |
Regarding this, I will try to verify if spaces at the start of file names indeed cause Windows to go nuts. |
UPDATE: I just verified that spaces cause problems. Try this: Rename any torrent file to contain this sequence " / " (space-slash-space) somewhere in the middle. At this point the qBitTorrent UI should have displayed the created folder but it doesn't. You should deselect and re-select the torrent for the newly created folder to appear. To delete the files you have to use 8.3 names (found from |
Seems this may have been introduced in error by specifically this commit: 008e385 in PR #9591 which was adopted by PR #10600 for v4_2_x branch & was backported to v4_1_x branch in PR #10615 so this bug has been there a good while! |
#15383 opened to address bug in #15378 (comment) |
@DumboJetEngine please make the title less generic :) |

To add to the "illegal" character issue, Explorer has different limitations when it comes to accessing files with "illegal" characters than the Win32 API does.
With that in mind, it seems like qBittorrent allows technically valid characters (such as "/" or an ending ".", but surprisingly not "?") during file operations but Explorer certainly doesn't handle them well. |
I am using the latest version of your client on Win10.
I like your client but I have some suggestions:
All of these features (I only doubt about the illegal path characters removal feature) are present in uTorrent, which I was using in the past.
