Moving the Lock UI with password button to a more unoticeable location
Moving the Lock UI with password button to a more unoticeable location
Just something that came to my mind, but the lock UI button is in a very noticeable where anyone can click on it and type a random password in. Do you think we can move that feature to the Options - Advanced tab, that way at least novice users (like little kids) will not know it is there. Just a suggestion.

Don't want to sound offensive, but you should start using a screenlock application (on Linux), or the lock screen (on Windows/OS X).
WIN+L is fast enough to keep the computer safe.
Never let kids berserk on your personal profile, no matter how unimportant your data/stuff is.
Ps.: Removing the password is quite easy, it's been posted several times. (it's in qbittorrent.ini on Windows, under Locking.)

and just as an aside,
Isn't "more unnoticeable" a contradiction in terms?

@ciaobaby: I just said that because I didn't know the proper word to use.
I don't have kids and I don't use password locks, but I just thought the password lock on this was, I guess you could say, out in the open.

But new people then would not find it.
I think it's a good feature for even newbie users.
But you can remove the button from the code, and compile a version for yourself.
(It's not that hard by the way.)

okay for future reference it's 'less noticeable' or 'less conspicuous'

If you set an UI lock password, nobody can reset by mistake if he doesn't input the correct password.
Also small children shouldn't use unsupervised the PC. The can easily bork things of the OS if they just go clicking on everything.
