Open Magnet Links #69

Closed BigT2013 closed 1 month ago

BigT2013 commented 11 months ago

Is there a way to enable Thorium to open Magnet links. I've tried many different things, but no go... Please advise, thank you for your help.

I'm downloading with an external app, but Thorium does not ask to send Magnet links to app. Please update.

Do you want to download files from magnet links? If so, I think it would be better to leave this job to a third-party downloader.

@BigT2013 Thorium can't open magnet links because it is not a Bittorrent client.

If you mean automatically opening the bittorrent client when one clicks on a magnet link, it should happen automatically. Make sure that Bittorrent or qBittorrent has been installed with proper file type handling for .torrent and .magnet files.

Lastly, you could check at chrome://settings/handlers and see what it says.
