 == Why use qBittorrent instead of another client? ==
 A lot of other BitTorrent clients exist but qBittorrent has several advantages:

 * It is the closest open-source equivalent to the extremely popular (and Windows only) BitTorrent client: [https://www.utorrent.com µTorrent].
 * Its development team is very active and friendly.
 * It is stable and it has a low footprint (generally, 20-60 MiB of RAM used), whilst providing all the features you may need.
-* It uses the high-tech [https://libtorrent.org/ libtorrent-rasterbar] library, which means greater download and upload speed as well as excellent support of the latest features of the BitTorrent protocol.

 == I configured qBittorrent to not download some files in a torrent but they still appear on my hard disk, why is that? ==
 As you may know, a torrent is split into pieces of equal size that do not take files into consideration.<br />
 As a consequence, a piece can contain information relative to more than one file and qBittorrent only operates at piece level.<br />
-Because of this, if two files are adjacent and you choose to download only one of them, it is likely that the filtered one will be partially downloaded and thus appear on the hard-disk.

 == How do I import my torrents from another BitTorrent client? ==
 Most users want to keep the torrents they are downloading or seeding when switching to qBittorrent from another BitTorrent client. This is of course possible and it is quite simple to achieve.<br />
@@ -160,7 +159,7 @@ Here is how you should proceed:
 * Edit the download path in the torrent addition dialog and choose the path where the original torrents were being downloaded/seeded.
 * For the torrents that are complete, you can select the ''Skip file checking and start seeding immediately'' option in the torrent addition dialog in order to save time and CPU. Basically, qBittorrent will trust that the local files are not corrupt and will start seeding them without rechecking all the files.
