qbittorrent: switch UIs on a schedule

Is there a way to switch the qbittorrent UI between the default UI and vuetorrent on a schedule? I tried changing the alternate UI between false and true in the config, but it didn't affect the app.

Have you tried restarting after changing the setting?
- Hm. No. I changed WebUI\AlternativeUIEnabled=true and killed the container, but it wasn't on the alternative UI after it started back up.
  
  Hm. It doesn't look like that changes when I change it in the UI, so this isn't the right setting. What is, though?
  
  Did you set the alternative ui directory to point to the vuetoerent folder ?
  
  I guess your best bet is to enable/disable the UI from the GUI, and make a diff of the configs.
Maybe a script could rename the .qbtheme files and restart qbittorrent to get it to recognize the renamed file as the default. Then you could run the script on a schedule to get the effect you want.
