    Set qbitorrent the default magnet


    Hi! I used to be able to import this reg file, and fix the issue. Guess not anymore: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge] "ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome] "ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Chromium] "ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox"=dword:00000001 I'm using edge chromium, and everytime i click a magnet link , the popup asks me if i want to always open with qbitorrent. Marking the checkbox, doesn't matter, it asks everytime: Running: windows 10 20H2 and qbitorrent 4.3.4.1 Any tips that work nowadays?

    :)

    Hi!

    I used to be able to import this reg file, and fix the issue. Guess not anymore:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge]
    "ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox"=dword:00000001

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome]
    "ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox"=dword:00000001

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Chromium]
    "ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox"=dword:00000001

    I'm using edge chromium, and everytime i click a magnet link , the popup asks me if i want to always open with qbitorrent. Marking the checkbox, doesn't matter, it asks everytime:

    It works for me. Try to reinstall it or run it as admin and untick/tick to open magnet links with it.
