Re: Import torrents from qBittorrent to qBittorrent Portable
The "cleanest" is to simply drag in the .torrent files and set the same download location. It will re-check every download and just continue where you left off.
Plan B is to just add a simple torrent to Portable, and open the "Data\settings\" folder inside portable. You can just swap the files from your normal installation ( "%APPDATA%\qBittorrent" and "%LOCALAPPDATA%\qBittorrent" and that's it.) It's more tedious, but not that bad. Of course make sure to have the client closed (both/any versions) when messing with this. It doesn't work? Messed up? Just delete the portable settings and try again with the copy.

Can you please point to me full adress of "%APPDATA%\qBittorrent" and "%LOCALAPPDATA%\qBittorrent"?
I do not find them.

Oh just press WIN+R, the Windows "Run" prompt pops up, and just paste in them. Like just paste: %APPDATA%\qBittorrent and it'll open.

Oh yeah... sorry, I was so stupid. Those paths are for the normal install. I just totally skipped the "portable" part. Sorry.
This is what the internet does to you.

1) Which portable are you using from? "Portabbleapps dot com" or "portapps dot io"SylverCheetah53 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 22, 2022 9:21 pm How about importing torrents from qBittorrent to qBittorrent Portable?
How do I do that?
2) Which version and is it stable? Like it doesn't go like this
I'm currently using v4.3.6 and thinking of upgrading and start using portable.

.
1) is it possible to run multiple portable instances of qbittorrent and download different torrents? Like 2-4 folders with qbittorrent portable in them and running them simultaneously and using them to download different torrents and will there be any sort of clash between the app instances?
2) If it is possible, would that impact the hard drive in any negative way since multiple apps are constantly reading and writing to the disk?
3) Is there any official portable release from you, the devs or only 3rd party releases are available at the moment? If so, which one do you recommend? I currently know of "portabbleapps dot com" & "portapps dot io". The first one is up to date and the 2nd one is a few versions behind.

Look here.

It's able to run "portable" natively.
I had to use 7zip to extract the x64 version.
Someone else will have to chime in about the first two questions.

by the same user to confirm that the official portable by the devs does not cause this issue? I used portable by 3rd party before, and I too faced that issue.
