Did you manage to solve it? |

No. It was suggested I re-install Python release 3.85 specifically. That worked for about a month, then one day it just stopped working again. At present I'm without the search tool. |

Not really an intelligible comment, but try what I suggested above. Remove engines and add them back on-by-one. Until you figure out which breaks it. |

Probably off developing and not doing tech support. It might be that all the script files are corrupted? Or something got wrong with python. |

maybe you did not pay close attention..: the folder is named 36-32 but the python.exe inside is a real 64bit one downloaded from its official site... |

the result is that there is no way to use the search engine..so why use qbittorrent instead of the most popular utorrent..?? |

As the OP, I can confirm that the search function is still messed up. I had it working for a few weeks, I don't know what changed. The latest problem on one of my machines is that the search will find all sorts of results, and ~90% of them will have "errors in bencoded string", making them not actionable to download. I really do wish someone would make a serious effort to get this part of the software to work reliably, particularly as more and more ISPs block searches on individual torrent sites. |

@p060477 I was suggesting @coffeecupman had outdated plugins, since for him the searches failed. |

You don't actually need that, only creating a "profile" folder where the executable is, but it should work the same. It seems more like a glitch at your end. Have you tried reinstalling python? |

Hi all, I have 2 windows PCs that are affected together recently, so it makes me suspect windows updates. The recent win update is https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/releaseNote/2023-Dec The related preview win update is KB5032288 |

I've been unable to use search plugins since last summer when I migrated my qb from an old laptop to a new one.
qb 4.41, python 3.92 (64 bit), Windows 11 (although was Win 10 when the problem started). On my old machine I had all of the recommended search plugins on the github search plugins installed.
When I open the Search Plugins tab, there appear to be no plugins installed.
Any plugin I try to install says "Cannot install (X), plugin not supported."
I have tried a complete uninstall and reinstall, no change.
Despite the uninstall, when I hit "Check For Updates", the fresh install seems to know the names of all of the former plugins I had installed, and throws an error window for each of them giving the same error as above.
So it appears that there is a folder somewhere that contains information on previous plugins that is not being successfully removed with a full uninstall, and the remnants of these old plugins are somehow contaminating their successful re-install.
Does anyone have any idea what I could delete or do to give me a fresh start with search plugins?
