Originally created by @Georgiy-Timoshin on GitHub (Aug 12, 2025).

Suggestion

In the installation file (at least for windows) "qbittorrent.pdb", which is unnecessary for the average user and takes up relatively much space.

I suggest excluding it from the build.

I would suggest a more reasonable approach: a checkbox in the installer “Do not install debugging data”

What good would that be to us?, it's there for the purpose of crash reports... & this type of ticket has been duplicated numerous times!

This is useful from the user's point of view, as there is demand for this feature. In any case, many will still not uncheck the box. Those who know that it can be deleted will delete it anyway.
