Description

qBittorrent info and operating system(s)

qBittorrent version: 4.3.8 (64-bit)
Operating system(s) where the issue occurs: Windows 10 (10.0.1xxxx)

If on Linux, `libtorrent-rasterbar` and `Qt` versions

Qt: (type here)
libtorrent-rasterbar: (type here)

What is the problem

Actions set to occur after torrents are done downloading occur too soon. Eg: if set to "exit qBitorrent" or shutdown the system upon completion of downloads, it might occur while one or more of the downloaded files are still being moved to another drive or checked for errors if that option is enabled in Advanced. It is easily reproducible by downloading two files at the same time, and setting the completed files to be moved to a network resource. When the first file is done moving, it will initiate the shutdown timer while the 2nd file is still moving.

Detailed steps to reproduce the problem

have downloads set to save to a slower drive, either a network resource or something that is not overly fast for file transfers
have "incomplete torrents" working folder set to a local temp drive (better than excessive network traffic that would be caused)
set "On Downloads Done" to "Exit qBittorrent", "Shutdown System", or anything other than "Disabled"
download more than one torrent, ping some that will complete around the same time (within the 15 second countdown timer)
the program will exit or shutdown the system after the first file is done, interrupting the file transfer of others that have been initiated after the first completed

What is the expected behavior

The program should exit after all files have been completed, and not just the first file. The program should not exit or shutdown the system during other torrents' post-download file operations.
