qBittorrent, Stalling, and YOU!

[Dave]

Today I went to download a few things - WHICH I OWN BY RIGHT OF HAVING AMAZON VIDEO! - but my qBittorrent has anything new as stalled. I've gone through several websites and videos who perported to be able to help the problem but nothing does. I'm at my wit's end, here.

I mean, in THIS case it was Amazon, but all torrents are doing this.

There's SO many things that could be causing this. Your firewall. Your VPN (if you're using one, and you should be, if you're torrenting from home). Your ISP could be blocking the trackers needed for the torrents to work. You could be behind CGNAT. Are you getting the torrents from PirateBay or IPTorrents or what?

Turns out the configuration files were corrupted. I had to do a deep dive and remove EVERYTHING associated. Even hidden files. Then go to an earlier version. Suddenly it all worked.
