qbittorrent 4.6.4 installer setup froze at the end after installing and clicking finish is not exiting the window. This has never happened before. Anyone else have this problem? Using windows 10 64bit.

just end the process in taskmgr
double check if installed in C:\Program Files\qBittorrent

Are you using winget or any other script system to install qBittorrent?
Are you running Windows through a VM/Container/parallels desktop on mac etc.?

I've had the same issue installing qBittorrent both versions 5.0.3 and 5.0.4 in Windows 11. I'm using the "_setup.exe" installer downloaded from fosshub.com. Specifically, after installation is complete I leave "Launch qBittorrent" checked and click "Finish". qBittorrent launches then the installer window goes blank and stays up. Only the "Finish" button and the minimize icon top right remain clickable; the others are greyed out.

I had to use task manager to close the installer window. It looked like there were two installer processes in task manager but only one window, so perhaps the second process was preventing the first from closing.
