Bug Description

I downloaded a number of .torrents and they were listed on the download page in various stages of being downloaded, paused and waiting to be downloaded. The upload tab listed a number of files available for upload. I closed the application and restarted it sometime later. There are now no files listed in the tabs. The .qbittorrent/BT_backup directory has many files with the following format 'hash code'.fastresume, 'same hash code'.priorities, .savepath, .trackers. Going into preferences and setting the load torrents on start from does not help. I am running version 1.5.4.

What can I do to recover from this issue?

Regards

Brian

Well, the only reason I can think of is that qbittorrent-resume.conf got deleted or corrupted for some reason. In case that happens, I'm adding a patch to SVN which reloads torrents from ~/.qbittorrent/BT_backup/ in case that happens.

If I'm right, your problem should not be reproducible.

Well, the only reason I can think of is that qbittorrent-resume.conf got
deleted or corrupted for some reason. In case that happens, I'm adding a
patch to SVN which reloads torrents from ~/.qbittorrent/BT_backup/ in
case that happens.

If I'm right, your problem should not be reproducible.
