About qBittorrent Enhanced Edition

qBittorrent Enhanced Edition is an unofficial fork of qBittorrent that tracks the upstream code, with a branch following the 5.2 series. It keeps the familiar qBittorrent interface and features and adds extras on top, most notably automatic blocking of leeching clients that download without uploading.

It suits users who already like qBittorrent and want more control over which peers they share with. As a fork, it depends on one maintainer merging upstream changes.

Strengths

  • Automatic blocking of leeching clients
  • Same interface as qBittorrent
  • Follows current upstream releases

Limitations

  • Unofficial fork maintained separately from qBittorrent
  • Updates can lag behind upstream releases

Compare all

Software that can replace qBittorrent Enhanced Edition for an important use case, and what changes if you switch.

  • qBittorrent

    A full-featured BitTorrent client with no ads, built as an open source replacement for µTorrent.

    qBittorrent is the official upstream project with the same interface and license, receiving releases directly, but without automatic blocking of leeching clients.

  • Transmission

    A light BitTorrent client that behaves like a native app on each platform, with a headless daemon for servers.

    Transmission is a lighter open-source client with a headless daemon and web interface, but lacks integrated search and has no leecher blocking.

  • Deluge

    Plugin-driven BitTorrent client that can run headless with several front ends.

    Deluge is open source under GPL-3.0 with a plugin system and daemon mode, but its interface looks dated and releases are infrequent.

  • BiglyBT

    An open-source, ad-free BitTorrent client built on the former Azureus and Vuze codebase.

    BiglyBT is open source and ad-free with I2P integration, swarm merging and meta-search, but is heavier and has many options to learn.

  • Tixati

    A free, ad-free BitTorrent client with detailed bandwidth charts and peer controls.

    Tixati offers detailed peer controls and IP filtering with no ads, but it is closed source and has no macOS version.

  • µTorrent

    A BitTorrent client offered as a small desktop app and as a browser-based player.

    µTorrent is closed source and freemium, with the classic interface qBittorrent resembles, and some of its features require a paid plan.
