### Mon Oct 28th 2024 - qBittorrent v5.0.1 release

qBittorrent v5.0.1 was released.
Libtorrent 1.2.x users who stuck with it due to memory usage issues, you might want to try the libtorrent 2.0.x variant and change the disk IO type to the new option "Simple pread/pwrite". Memory usage issues should be eliminated with it. More info in PR #21300.
WINDOWS: If you like a native UI look and feel and don't care about dark mode use the `System` Qt style in the Settings (`Behavior` category). If you want the best possible dark mode support use the `Fusion` Qt style (it should be the default already).

### Sun Oct 22th 2023 - qBittorrent v4.6.0 release

qBittorrent v4.6.0 was released.
A lot of work has been done for version 4.6.0. The changelog below includes the most notable changes for end users along with the author for each change. Also, I want to thank all the users, like thalieht and xavier2k6, who constantly help with testing PRs and doing bug triaging.
WINDOWS: Only Windows 10+ is now supported.
SECURITY NOTICE: WebUI users YOU MUST change the default Webui credentials (aka "adminadmin") when exposing the WebUI to the Internet. There are reports(1, 2, 3, 4) that this is possibly exploited in the wild. This will be remedied in a followup release where the default credentials will be disabled and a credentials change will be forced.
macOS: Builds are self-signed now. It should help with macOS permissions dialogs.

### Monday November 16th 2020 - Donation info updates

The donation info has been updated to better reflect the expectations of donating to the project. Donations are made as a "Thank You" and with no expectation of any kind of obligation by us, eg having to implement feature X or Y.
The development of qbittorrent is done by volunteers and we don't employ programmers or other people to work on the project. There are a few lead programmers that coordinate most things on github and also contribute code.
Donations are appreciated as a "Thank You". You can choose to help with the server costs (website, forum, domain) and/or donate to lead programmers.

Because the development is volunteer driven, we can't set very specific goals. At the end of the day a volunteer will fix/implement whatever pleases him/her. We can't dictate to volunteers to work on specific things if they don't want to. The same applies to lead programmers. We are volunteers too.
However, if you want specific features implemented or issues solved you may look at our Bountysource page. There you can post a monetary bounty for an issue/feature and maybe someone is incentivized enough to fix/implement it.

For details, see donation page.

PS: The old cryptocoin addresses have been retired. Please don't continue sending funds there. Accumulated funds will be used as reserves mostly for covering server costs in the future.

### Thursday October 22nd 2020 - qBittorrent v4.3.0.1 release

qBittorrent v4.3.0.1 was released.
This is a minor release to address crashes on Windows related to torrents with URL seeds (`HTTP Sources` in the qbittorrent window). These crashes were exposed due to boost 1.74. Boost 1.73 doesn't have this problem. However, libtorrent also fixed the issue on their end so the Windows installers use the newer libtorrent code.
The rest of the release is almost the same as v4.3.0 (see changelog). Since other platforms weren't affected only Windows builds will be made available for this version.

v4.3.0.1 changelog:

- WINDOWS: NSIS: Update Italian translation (bovirus)

### Sunday October 18th 2020 - qBittorrent v4.3.0 release

qBittorrent v4.3.0 was released.
This is a major version release due to the high number of accumulated changes and due to the long time since the last release.
Some notes:

- Theming support has been enhanced but previous theme bundles will not work properly with this release. Please contact the theme provider for a fix. The new format is described here.
- If you want faster tracker announce rate or are having a slower client exit(compared to 4.2.x) then you may try increasing the `Max concurrent HTTP announce` limit from advanced settings.
- The latest version of libtorrent used contains many important fixes compared to the last one, including memory leaks and speed issues due to wrong caching logic on Windows.
- Qt 5.15.1 is used which offers far better HiDPI support. However, the torrent context menu will close after each tag selection.
- Brave users can download experimental builds from "Actions CI" on github.

### Thursday September 7th 2017 - qBittorrent v3.3.16 and 3.4.0beta2_20170709_cbfbae14090 release

Since it was a month since the last stable and v3.4.0 seems to be delayed just a bit, it was a good time to backport critical fixes and do another v3.3.x release.
Alongside v3.3.16 there is beta2 of v3.4.0. It contains various fixes for the things mentioned in the first beta plus a few new additions. See changelog. This beta works on Windows XP (32-bit) too. macOS packages are ready too.
Finally, the future stable version will be v4.0.0 not v3.4.0
v3.3.16 changelog:

- BUGFIX: Better memory footprint when using libtorrent 1.1.x. The cache is turned off by default(`0 (disabled)` value in the settings). The value `-1 (auto)` makes it use 1/8 of your RAM. (sledgehammer999)
- BUGFIX: Skip user input events when adding torrent. Closes #7327. (glassez)
- BUGFIX: Avoid memory leak in the speed graph. (Chocobo1)
- WEBUI: Fix validating wrong header field. X-Forwarded-Host is a foreign proxy setting, it isn't the same as qbt's local setting and thus it makes no sense to verify it. Closes #7311. (Chocobo1)
- WINDOWS: Fix connection problems when a specific interface/ip is configured. (sledgehammer999)
- WINDOWS: Disable skipping of loopback interfaces. This fixes the absence of VPN tunnel interfaces under Windows and works around the QTBUG-32349. Fixes #7291. (Evengard)
- WINDOWS: The installer detects the 64bit running process too. (vlakoff)

3.4.0beta2_20170709_cbfbae14090 changelog:

### Thursday August 3rd 2017 - qBittorrent v3.3.15 release

### Thursday July 20th 2017 - qBittorrent v3.3.14 release

qBittorrent v3.3.14 was released.

2. It also contains another Webui fix for a DNS rebinding attack. For all WebUI users, if your qBittorrent server is assigned with a domain name, it is recommended to enter the domain name in `GUI: Options -> WebUI tab -> Server domains textbox` or in `config: Preferences section -> WebUI/ServerDomains` in order to defend against DNS rebinding attacks.
3. For macOS users: This is my first attempt to have a shortcut to `Applications` folder in the dmg. I hope that I didn't screw up the presentation.
4. Google has decided that qBittorrent is a persona non-grata. Read this reddit post for more info.
5. Either this weekend or the next one you will get a beta for v3.4.0. It has A LOT of new features so help in finding grave bugs. Keep checking back to see if it is posted.

Starting from the next version (v3.3.12) qBittorrent will use the following user-agent format:

    qBittorrent/A.B.C.DE

`A`, `B`, `C` and `D` are numbers indicating `VERSION_MAJOR`, `VERSION_MINOR`, `VERSION_BUGFIX` and `VERSION_BUILD` respectively.
If `D` is zero it will be omitted. The 3rd dot(`.`) will be omitted in this case.
`A`, `B` and `C` will always be present.
`E` is a string and possible values of it are `alpha`, `beta` and `rc`. They might not appear in all lowercase. Also they might appear numbered eg `alpha2`.
If `E` is empty it will be omitted. This indicates a stable release.
There is no connection between `D` and `E`. One might be present even if the other isn't. To sum up and give an example, the user agent that v3.3.12 will use is `qBittorrent/3.3.12`.

### Saturday February 13th 2016 - The forum is restored

As mentioned earlier, there were reports that the forums from a bunch of bittorrent related sites were hacked. As a result we switched off our forum to investigate. To the best of our knowledge we weren't hacked. We didn't discover any evidence of unauthorized entry. We highly suspect that the self-proclaimed "hacker" was a fraud instead. Just so you know the passwords are saved hashed and salted in the database. It is very difficult to reverse this and obtain the real password. In any case, we reset all the passwords and switched on the forum. You already should have received an email about your new password.

### Tuesday December 22nd 2015 - Forum compromise

It has come to our attention that the forum database containing user info might have been compromised by a third unauthorized party. We aren't able to tell if this is true from our logs. And we aren't sure if the hack was real. See more info in this article. If the database was indeed compromised it was probably through a bug of the forum software. We had installed version 2.0.11 of SMF, which is the latest stable. As a precaution we have taken down the forums. The passwords weren't saved as plaintext, but as salted hashes. It will make it very difficult for the hackers to recover the real passwords. However, we strongly recommend you to change your password to any other site on which you used the same password. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

### Saturday October 10th 2015 - qBittorrent v3.2.4 release

This version should be the last in the v3.2.x series. The upcoming v3.3.x is pretty stable and we'll focus to streamline it for release.

This is a Mac OS X release. This is the same source as v3.1.11. The difference is in the way it is compiled. Now it doesn't crash during launch due to incorrect dynamic library linking. Provided by user DomT4 (github)

### Thursday November 27th 2014 - Ubuntu PPAs

As you may have noticed already our Ubuntu PPAs were broken for quite some time now. Chris Dumez, who maintained them, was unable to fix them. Today I managed to create new and working PPAs. Head over to the download page and find the new PPAs. You should remove the old ones to avoid conflicts.

### Wednesday October 22nd 2014 - qBittorrent v3.1.11 release

qBittorrent v3.1.11 was released. I know I said that v3.1.10 would be the last of the v3.1.x series. However there were 2-3 regressions that warranted a new release. In the meantime, more bugfixes and features were committed by others. So v3.1.11 should be the last unless we find some serious issues with it.

Also some Windows 7 users experienced freezing of the GUI. We tracked it down to a specific commit in boost 1.56. So until boost fixes it, I am going to use boost 1.55 for Windows releases.

We really received a lot of feedback regarding v2.0.0 betas and release candidates and we would like to thank the brave people who tested it.

qBittorrent v2.0.0 changelog is available here.

### December 2nd 2009 - qBittorrent v2.0.0rc4 and competition finalist

Just a short article to announce that qBittorrent v2.0.0rc4 was released. It is stable and the UI will not change. I am now simply waiting for late translation updates so that I can make a final release (probably on December 10th)

### November 28th 2009 - qBittorrent v2.0.0rc2 and more search engine plugins

We have released today a second release candidate for qBittorrent v2.0.0. A lot of users decided to give v2.0.0 a try as soon as they saw the screenshots and we thank them for their useful feedback. Thanks to their effort, qBittorrent v2.0.0 final will be released sooner than expected.

Another recent news was that Mininova engine disabled access to over a million torrent files when it partly shut down its website due to legal issues. After this news, TorrentFreak published a list of 10 alternatives to Mininova. We decided it would be useful to support these 10 search engines in qBittorrent. As a result, we are currently publishing new plugins on Plugins.qbittorrent.org. 4 new plugins are available at the time I'm writing this news while qBittorrent already supported 3 engines listed in the Top 10. This means that only 3 more plugins are missing to support the whole Top 10.

Development on v2.0.0 is going really well and we are hoping it will be ready in a month or so. qBittorrent v2.0 brings a lot of new features and UI changes. The list of changes is available here but to summarize it should be a very close equivalent to the official Bittorrent client: µTorrent, in all levels: features, UI, lightness.
