Mainly got into this because I wanted to try out the new isle of man tt sim. went to www.yasdl.com and found it. Installed all of the parts but however I attempt to open them (winrar, then extracting the files (winrar, then using ultraiso, then using the setup.exe within, it always says that it isnt a Freearc archive/it’s corrupt) am I missing something major? I don’t really understand how to use torrents either. Apologies
Proton? Why are you using Proton? Does qBittorrent only have a Windows version? In that case don’t use qBittorrent, or if it has a Linux version (I assume you’re on Linux since you’re using Proton) get that one.
If you’re on Linux, at least Arch Linux like me (but I assume most OSes will have it), you can use the
transmission-qtpackage.There’s also a gtk version.
Anyway I’ve never used a VPN for torrents and never had a problem, but it probably depends on where you live and your ISP. Also I should note that I don’t have a static IP address, which means every time I start my PC I’m getting a new IP, which probably doesn’t hurt.
Though obviously the ISP always knows what my IP address is, so if they do have a problem with it then I would probably need to use a VPN.
oh yeah, good point. I’m on windows actually. Just paranoid because I work for my ISP
