First of all, thanks for the bug report. I wrote a piece of code whose purpose is to import torrents from qBittorrent v1.4.x to qBittorrent v1.5.x because the internal format changed. The bug is likely to be in this code. However, it would help me if you could provide me with more information such as: - What are the messages in the log: options > console (iirc) - Is there any related message on stdout if you start qBittorrent in a terminal? - What there particular settings for these paused torrents? (e.g. save path is different than for the others, filtered files in the torrent or priorities, edited trackers, per torrent upload/download speed limit?) There must be something different for those torrents and it would help me locate the problem to find it. - Are you sure you were actually seeding these torrent in v1.4.x? or these torrents were downloading in v1.4.x and appeared as seeding in v1.5.x only? - If you display one of the paused torrent properties, do you notice anything out of the ordinary? (e.g. save path is missing or incorrect).
If a torrent is paused on startup and it should not be, it means that an error occurred while accessing files on hard disk, this is why I'm suspecting that for some reason, qBittorrent did not import the save path correctly and thus, did not find the already existing files. Thanks in advance.
