Why qBittorrent does not recognise my partitions?

Asked by Creveniceanu Cristian

I try to download something with qBittorrent but i cant select the partition that i want. The only one partition that i can select, is the partition where i have installed the OS. Zorin 16. I have qBittorrent, version 4.3.3

I have try allready another client, (KTorrent), but with KTorrent does not start the download. There i can select the partition but is not starting the download.

I would like to have the possibility to select any other partition from hard disk. Any sugestions?

This is support for Ubuntu and not for other operating systems like Zorin OS, even if they use parts of Ubuntu.

I assume that you can use https://zorin.com/help/ to find support for your operating system.

Can you help with this problem?
