qBittorrent 4.2.5 on Windows 10:

When you run out of disk space, torrents appear "stalled", as if there were no seeds, or the seeds were unwilling to send any data to you. I think that is misleading and a "your disk is full" message should be displayed instead.

Log says:

25/09/2020 21:21 - File error alert. Torrent: "Torrent Name". File: "G:\Full Path\To File.mkv". Reason: Torrent Name file_write (G:\Full Path\To File.mkv) error: There is not enough space on the disk

So the client knows, but it does not display that error anywhere.

View -> Log -> Show. Doesn't it also show you a notification on Windows 10? Maybe you have those disabled.

I assigned "confirmed bug" because I'm assuming you would like the client to inform you about "no disk space" directly on the status column, though. Is this right?
