get torrent link
Some how some way when I was not paying attention I changed the file association to "Get Torrent" within TPA . When I click that link hoping QBT will startup or add torrent to download list I get the install.exe for QBT. So I have to copy link location and paste it blah blah blah. Can someone please tell me how to get back to where I was and just click that link to start or add. I have looked everywhere including reinstalling 3.3.5. Thank you
Re: get torrent link
Under Options, Behavior, (scroll down to) File Association:
Use qBitTorrent for .torrent files
Use qBitTorrent for magnet links
You'll probably want to check both boxes.
Use qBitTorrent for .torrent files

Thanks for the reply Switeck. Yes I did check those boxes. I think it happened when I installed the new version and in a rush I clicked the wrong file association when asked to enter it from a list. However when I tried to re-install QBT that option never came back.

1. Go to Windows Explorer (<WIN-E>).
2. Right mouse button click on a .torrent file.
3. Choose 'Open with...'
4. Choose qbittorrent. If it's not in the list, choose Browse... and select the qbittorrent.exe file.
5. Tick the checkbox stating 'Always use this application to open .torrent files with'

Thanks S.H.Bouwhuis but that did not work. Under Win E I found the QBT and the .exe file but when I used it it still gave the pop up to install QBT.
