No permission issues here. I read the thread you recommended, but I didn't find any problems related to this. No errors related to files. Thanks.
Hello! Does your running qBittorrent have rights similar as utorrent had previously? Which system user use qBittorrent, and what permission settled on files?
Yes, qBittorrent has the same user permissions as uTorrent did previously, both running under the same system administrator user.
Regarding the files, I checked them now, and I found that all the old files are marked as "Read Only." This is very strange, as I don't remember configuring anything like this in uTorrent. So, it seems this is the issue.
However, I'm not sure if it was bt2qbt or uTorrent that marked the files as "Read Only."
Can you check have your files (in problematic torrents) read only property in OS?
Hello,
I've encountered an issue with bt2qbt that I wanted to bring to your attention. When migrating torrents from uTorrent to QBittorrent using bt2qbt, the files of these migrated torrents are not permanently deleted from the hard drive, even when using the "Also permanently delete the files" option in QBittorrent.
Steps to Reproduce:
Use bt2qbt to migrate torrents from uTorrent to QBittorrent. In QBittorrent, attempt to delete the torrent and its associated files by selecting the "Also permanently delete the files" option.
Expected Behavior:
Both the torrent and its associated files should be deleted from the hard drive.
Actual Behavior:
The torrent is removed from QBittorrent, but the files remain on the hard drive.
Additional Information:
I've found several users in the Qbittorrent Forum experiencing this same issue, but no one has pinpointed the cause. After some investigation, it appears that this problem only affects torrents that were migrated from uTorrent using bt2qbt. Torrents that are added directly to QBittorrent are deleted as expected, with all files being removed from the hard drive.
Thank you for looking into this issue. If you need any further information or logs, please let me know.
