qBittorrent Not Working After Windows Update? 7 Ways to Fix it

qBittorrent users on Reddit reported that the torrent client cannot download files, sometimes the client doesn’t open, etc. If you have been facing the same problem, here’s what you should do.

1. Restart your Windows 11 PC

Restart your computer

Restarting is important after installing an update because there is a lot of finalization work done in the background. If you haven’t restarted your computer after installing the latest update, restart it and then try downloading files from the qBittorrent.

2. End Task qBittorrent from the Task Manager

End Task qBittorrent from the Task Manager

The next best thing you can do is to end all qBittorrent processes in the background. This will ensure that the services run by qBittorrent are free from bugs and glitches.

Open the Task Manager on your Windows 11 PC and find the qBittorrent process. Once you find it, right-click on it and select End Task.

3. Turn off the VPN

Use a VPN App

The VPN server you’re connected to may be overcrowded, which is leading to a slow download speed or the download being unable to start. Although it’s not a good idea to turn off VPN while torrenting, you can temporarily do so.

If you can’t turn off the VPN, switch to a different server location and check if the torrent client starts downloading the files.

4. Select the Network Interface in qBittorrent Settings

You can try selecting your network connection from the Network Interface settings of the qBittorrent client. Here’s what you need to do.

1. Launch the qBittorrent client on your PC.

2. Navigate to the Tools > Options.
