Please provide the following information

qBittorrent version and Operating System

4.2.5 Win10

What is the problem

If you mistakenly click on the automatic torrent management option, all files are moved to default save path. No warning or tooltips are there to describe what this option does. This give really bad user experience..Imagine someone selected all torrents and mistakenly click on automatic management. All torrents will be moved to default save path!

What is the expected behavior

Show a warning that the files will be moved..don't silent move files just because someone clicked on something which has no description whatsoever.
