Any language options you choose, not recorded. Running again, appears the default language [English]. The previous version had the same problem... but before this (2.9.2) worked perfectly.

Works here when I change it from English to Spanish and there are no known bugs with it. Are you using it with the Platform? If so, it will automatically switch to the same language as the platform. If not, please create a bug report topic in the Other Apps support forum with all details (OS, install location, etc).

Hello,

Can't associate Magnet URL's Sad

I understand it's portable, but is there a way to keep associations with .torrent and Magnet links (using portable firefox) ?

Thanks

Currently, file associations for portable use can only be made using either eXpresso or PortableFileAssociator (do a search for either, I don't have the links handy).

I'm not positive if either of those will be able to do what you want or not.

The PortableApps.com Platform will be debuting built-in support for associations in an upcoming release, which will do what you want.

You can manually make the association in Firefox Portable by clicking a magnet link and, rather than having it use the OS association, select to browse to the app you want to use and select qBittorentPortable.exe.

Don't worry about the path as the Firefox Portable launcher will automatically adjust it for you as you move PCs.
