qBittorrent & operating system versions

version 4.3.8 x64 (but my client says 4.3.3 after installing)
windows 10

What is the problem?

FYI might be related to my prev ticket #14342, but i noticed that:
-the installation got stuck on the "translations" file. once i ignored that the installation went smoothly
-when the installer finished running the client header says it's version 4.3.3 instead of 4.3.8

Steps to reproduce

  1. prompt from QBT pops up saying update is available
  2. click button to download
  3. installer gets downloaded
  4. run installer
  5. "error opening file for writing" appears on the "translation" file. this is persistent. retrying insta-fails
  6. click ignore
  7. installer runs again with no more additional issues

Closing, OP isn't really active....4.6.0 is out now & it uses newer NSIS (3.08) Installer.
