@Peter, i installed qb with ubuntu software center GUI

I tried also with appimage but same result



With Ubuntu 22.04.2 lts you don't see the qbittorrent window when it is launched The program works, there is the small icon-menu at the top right and the icon in the toolbar.

You just dont see the main window


Never had this problem with precedent Ubuntu version

This sounds like an Ubuntu bug to me. Not sure if they will fix it because 22.04 is pretty old at this point, and it's "LTS" which means they try to avoid breaking things.

But you can always try.
See:

The team is not capable of fixing this, because it's an issue with Ubuntu's graphical interface, which is unique to Ubuntu (Unity-like Gnome). You could always try upgrading to the latest version via the PPA though.

just some info
I use QBT on ARM since Ubuntu 20.10 and above, LTS sometimes too, and currently on 22.10 pending upgrade to last one
Never had such issue but my installation comes always from the PPA (see install option).

Maybe you can try this one?
