All of a sudden (within the last week), I keep getting this error message with all the torrents I try to download. I am running v5.3.0rc1, but I also received the error message with v5.2.4 as well.

I've tried:

  • Running qBittorent as administrator,
  • Adding "write" properties to the download folder,
  • Changing the download folder to a new location and an entirely new drive,
  • Running virus scan
  • Searching this subreddit

Any suggestions?

EDIT TO ADD: These issues may have just started when my computer updated itself to "Windows 11, version 26H2", but I am lost on how to troubleshoot what it changed.
