As qBittorrentPortable.ini shows, qBittorent Portable is all over the registry and app data folders, not to mention a whole custom code in custom.nsh.
That's a lot of writes which are not needed since qBittorent has an official portable mode which can also be achieved with a command line parameter and/or an environmental variable (see both here). It's also mentioned here.
So there are 3 ways to activate portable mode, why not using any of them?
In addition, it includes in vain a folder called $PLUGINDIR.
This might also apply to qBittorrent Enhanced Portable, and might solve issues like this and that.

there are many levels of portability.
john makes real portable apps.
if he would use it it would be not full portable.
that's what i figured out.
the settings problem is not only here.
i have a port app from developer, same problem.
i help out but get ignored and bullied here.
hopefully i'm not making very bad at the moment.
we need here slowly a not mobing hint.
edit:
one can get here mental problems, don't let get bullied.
fight against bulling!
i help where i can! maybe you can help (me) too! see in my account under 'track' for my conservations/threads. be nice!
if you don't want to help, don't post crap!
qBittorrent Portable Enhanced has used the -profile command line switch from the beginning. qBittorrent Portable does as of a recent release. That doesn't make qBittorrent fully portable though.
You're welcome to use the standard ZIP version from the publisher with the PA.c Platform if you want to directly associate it with files, you just lose out on automatic updates and stuff.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Thanks for adding official portable support!
It seems though none of the keys mentioned in [RegistryKeys] of qBittorrentPortable.ini exist in my standard ZIP version, not even HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ESENT itself.
As for custom.nsh it checks that "a second instance of qBittorrent doesn't occur". But since it was there before using "-profile" are you sure it's still needed?
Plus it seems to fix something about qBittorent's automated translation, but I'm not sure why.
