Incessant asking (by Mac OS) for access

Post by sammy5678 »

MacOS 12.3, qBittorent 4.4.2

Myriad requests for access to Downloads file and a removable volume. Really annoying. qBittorent has been granted access to Removable Volumes and Downloads Folder in System Preferences (Security & Privacy > Privacy > Files and Folders). This behavior did not occur prior to installing v4.4.2.

Hi,
Lot of people have the same problem on Mac and last Qbt update.
Installing back version 4.3.9 is working fine, just wait for next update.

Lau.

Same here. Going to stick with 4.3.9 for the time being.

i'm on OSX 12.2.1 and QBT 4.4.2 and i get this every time i open it so it seems not to be fixed with 4.4.2?
i'm also having issues with torrent sites recognising my torrents, the site thinks i'm not seeding
it was the same with the previous version of QBT

@Zephiruss 4.3.9 is working fine for me (and others). I'd go back to that until they figure it out.

Has any brave soul tried 4.4.3.1? Is this issue fixed?
I'm still using 4.3.9, now on macOS 12.5, and it works fine.

I just tried v4.4.4 on macOS 12.5.1 and it's **still** asking for access to the drive my torrents are on. Granting access in the finder (hitting OK on the pop-up) does nothing and just loops. System Prefs> Security&Privacy> Privacy> Files&Folders qBittorrent has access to removable volumes.

Unbelievable this hasn't been fixed yet. Back to v4.3.9.
