You should also check out Search Plugins that can be installed to do searches from Qbittorrent itself instead of going to websites.

Yup, those work great as well, although most of them fail to return results on Indian ISPs (Use Cloudfare WARP to bypass that if you don't have a VPN).
I personally use Jackett API bound to my proxy VPN.
 
Sometimes while browsing forums or watching videos in YT, my monitor is going black and comes again after a second or two. What could be the problem? I did not find any error associated with this in Event Viewer. No BSODs or crashes but just plain & simple going off and on it comes back again.

Is your monitor a LG one? If not please mention the model name. Also whether using HDMI/VGA/DP modes?

I have used QB, Transmission and Tixati in the past. Have no idea on what is good now.

Every software publisher has to submit their software to MS for verification. It costs $1k per year.

Open source/free software sometimes don't have this money. That's why you get this warning.

Other option is to digitally sign the installer with a code signing certificate which is not as costly as MS verification but it likely fixes the warning.

Yes its an LG one. LG 32GK650F is the model. I am using it with DP cable in DP mode. I am using QBittorrent right now. I was tired of the ads in uTorrent.
 
+1 for Qbittorrent and JDownloader2
BTW Qbittorrent does have search and add functionality but you will need to enable it first. (ah I see others have already mentioned this, I'm too late)

Also who here uses Windows Smartscreen anymore? It's trash because If the .exe was indeed harmful then Defender will detect and quarantine it. Smartscreen is just an extra click that annoys me (SINCE WINDOWS 7).
 
Short answer: Deluge

I was a uTorrent 2.2 user until the infamous update that turned it into crap. I've also tried qBittorrent, but I had trouble with torrents starting immediately. There used to be long periods of silence before it could connect to a peer. qBittorrent also wrecked one of my hard drives and deleted a entire folders while configuring storage destinations. I had to quit qBit after that. Since then I've been on Deluge. Its a very simple torrent client and torrents start up immediately. I've been using this for almost a decade now and I've been quite happy with it. It's also open source, so I'm always happy to support open source projects.
