The OS I tried are XP x86 SP3 and XP x64 SP2, both with the latest updates.
Step to reproduce this:
1) from my local Firefox installation I open a magnet link in "qBittorrentPortable.exe".
2) qBittorrent opens and adds the link.
3) from my browser I try to open another magnet link in "qBittorrentPortable.exe", while qBittorrent is already running.
Result: Firefox can't resolve the address, claiming the magnet protocol isn't installed or has some problems. I also tried with Chrome and it says nothing, but still doesn't open the second magnet if qBittorrent is already running.
Note that I have manually associated the magnet protocol to "qBittorrentPortable.exe" in the windows registry.
I haven't ticked the option "use qBittorrent for magnet links" inside the qBittorrent settings, because that makes the application not portable anymore: it would make me open the magnet link directly in "qBittorrent.exe", skipping the "qBittorrentPortable.exe" launcher.
Am I missing something?
Thanks.
Does this happen with the previous version, qBittorrent Portable 3.1.12 Rev 2?
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Yes, the same happens.
It's as if qBittorrentportable.exe couldn't pass the magnet link to the application. It seems to deny any request if the application is already running.
If you find it useful I can try it on a windows 7 virtual machine, but I don't think it's an OS related problem.
Any news?
