This is a regression in 4.4.2. Can't reproduce with 4.4.1.
@glassez I think this caused by github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent@5d161d2477

Same thing is happening to me. In the meanwhile it can be solved by editing your config file (~/.config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf in linux) as follows:

Session\TempPathEnabled=true
Session\TempPath=/path/to/your/temp/files

It's also happening for me in Windows.

Happens on Mac too ..even if you add it to the qBittorrent.ini file, the momement you hit preferences, it wipes it out.

It is useless to edit qBittorrent.ini while qBittorrent is running.
