No search plugins on qBittorrent install

Post by xsentrik »

After clean install of Windows 10, I installed QBT v4.0.1 (64-bit), opened Search Engine, let QBT install Python (v3.5.2 32-bit is what it picked), but found no search plugins installed. Uninstalled both QBT and Python and started over, same result. Then tried manually installing Python 3.6.3 64-bit but same result. So I then tried Python 2.7.14 - no luck. I have tried different combinations several times but cannot seem to have QBT load its default plugins. Any ideas?

Thank you for that information. So, I went to the github plugins page and tried to add a plugin. I chose one, clicked on download, and got a page of code. What do I do with this code to add it as a plugin? I suspect there's a simple solution/answer but I just don't see it. I'm sure it must be obvious that I am a novice here. Thanks for whatever assistance you can provide.

Right click on the "download" link, copy link address, then in qB plugins window select "Install a new one" and choose Web link. That's it.
