load a torrent
pause a torrent
close qb
put complete files into incomplete folder
add .!qb suffix
start qb
force recheck torrent

-> recheck completes within a split second and the complete files do not get recognized.

version: 3.3.10 x64, arch linux
related: #165

Try to reproduce after downgrading libtorrent to 1.0.x, there are several issues with supporting the latest libtorrent so it's suspect number one.

yaourt -S libtorrent-rasterbar-1_0-git
yaourt -S qbittorrent-git # the qbittorrent official package is linked against the new libtorrent and won't work with the old one.

Reverted to 1_0-git and qb-git, will try to reproduce it when I get some free time and post the results here.

Ok, the scenario is similar with 1_0-git and qb-git; Now rechecking actually works (so not working might be a 1.1.x issue), but if appending .!qB is enabled, then any files not having the suffix (= already completed) are ignored.

That would be a separate issue then? Or at least renaming this one to make the .!qB files ignored the main focus.

I've seen this issue and had to delete and re-add the torrent with the files already in the right location.

But when I do that, I also run into other bugs...
Tracker updates done while torrent paused...if Force Rechecking torrent data https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/6137
(Also allows peers and seeds to connect and DL/UL to the torrent while rechecking!)

My old report #5460 seems to be at least related if not the same issue (?).

This might help. Make sure the .!qB file extension for partial files is disabled. Reload the software ( let it exit gracefully. mine takes a couple minutes to due to how many torrents I have in it... ) Try the force recheck after the software reloads. With 4.0.3 my previously completed torrents have come back to life ( finally! ).

We are closing all issues related to old qBittorrent versions (qBittorrent < 4.1.0).
Please, update to last release and, if the bug/error/crash is still present, open another issue.
Thank you.
