Watched Folder not retaining path

I am moving over from Transmission to qBittorrent but I have found a bug (I think) with qBittorrent.

I need to be able to import a LOT of torrents and it doesn't look like qBittorrent allows you to select more than one at a time. So I was going to utilize the "Automatically add torrents from:" to bulk import my torrents. But I'm unable to get my path to stick once I save it. If I input the path, it will be gone the next time I open the Options menu (even though I saved it).

Can I manually plug this into the config file? I have searched but have only been able to find the default.config file, but that doesn't contain my info.

Please let me know if you have any ideas/hints to give!!!!

Thanks!

Re: Watched Folder not retaining path

If anyone has this issue in the future here is the solution.

The config file (Called config.default) is located: /data/.apps/qbittorrentr6/config.default

To edit the file execute: vi config.default

Look for the line: Downloads\DownloadInScanDirs=

And change it to your desired scan directory (In my case "Input"): [Example]: Downloads\DownloadInScanDirs=/data/qBittorrent/Input

Save the file ( esc , :wq) Stop and Start qBittorrent from ReadyNas FrontView and your change should have taken effect!
