Does anyone know how to run qbittorrent and protonvpn in a VM? When I try to run the qbittorrent setup app I get this message (image below) and I don't see anything mentioning a VM in the qbittorrent [dot] org forum.
I am new to torrenting, so I don't really know what to do. I figured/assumed that torrenting/seeding in a VM might be safer as it is another layer deep, and that it may help keep traffic separate (inside the VM: I'd be using a vpn and torrenting, and outside the VM: I'd not be using a vpn and just regular internet surfing). Is this possible?
Thank you.
I don't recall if it was in a VM or not, it doesn't really matter. A VM is just a logical system, the OS runs the same as it would on bare hardware (for things like this).
I suspect what I see in Windows is a result of devs designing for an prior version of Windows, and some system call returns differently enough in a newer version. The times I've seen it, the apps work fine, which makes me thing it's a validation that fails.
