Thank you for the advice. Get them separate just because of how few I am looking to get? I feel like there might be more setup required if I get them separately.

I also don't know if getting them separate would cause me to get redundant installers/managers/rules+patches each trying to apply the same patches.

There we go! I had to enable port forwarding (didn't know that was required). Thank you.

you can tell the VPN what you want to include/exclude:

Exclude mode: Selected apps and IP addresses are excluded from VPN connection, Include mode: Only selected apps and IP addresses connect via VPN, all other traffic is unprotected.

I had to enable port fowarding, thank you.

What do you mean? Is that not correct? Is it where I have to choose between one or the other?

I meant that if I was unable to figure out a solution, at least I would be able to transfer it to a VM (which apparently Windows Sandbox isnt really)

Oh wow, I didn't realize it isn't a VM.. Thank you for the in depth response.

Thank you. Do you mean even with ProtonVPN it is hard to configure?

I'm not sure what you mean by bare metal. Yeah mostly the avoiding malware, but I think I can just download it via torrent and VPN > upload to my email > open the VM > download from email > check with virustotal > try running the exe if it seems normal

should I just not use a VM while torrenting and using a VPN then?

If I don't use a VM, is it possible to torrent with a VPN but surf the net without the vpn concurrently?

I haven't purchased the VPN yet, and I've only downloaded and ran the qbittorrent setup file. (then that window appeared (image above). The VM should be set up correctly (all I had to do is just enable the feature - Windows Sandbox).

Windows and Win Sandbox

I’ve seen this error with an app in Windows, while running it in an admin account, haha. No idea what these app devs are doing to cause these messages.

Oh really? Was the admin account you are referring to outside or inside the VM?

it seems the ones on rutracker are pretty old (2023 and below) do you know if teamos [dot] xyz is safe?

I installed 7zip if that made it appear (not sure if it is the case though) Yeah I may have to just pay for subscriptions with money I can't afford :S

Should I have scanned the extracted folders rather than the rar file itself? (even though it shows network communications and mitre signatures?)

I ran an antivirus outside the VM and nothing was detected luckily. (I had already extracted the rar files, but just scanned the rar itself)

Thank you for the reply/advice. I am curious, how would that make a difference for a direct download?

is it rsload (dot) net, org, etc.? I couldn't find it on the megathread or from other treasures links. However, I did see this on Wiki Index's list of unsafe sites

RSLOAD - Uploaded the same version of malwarebytes that got FileCR in trouble / Utorrent malware

Why is that? (because I can use it for other things afterwards?)

Astute Graphics plugin (about 628MB)

Thank you for the reply. I'm curious what version you use? (like 2025, 2020, or even earlier) Can anyone who uses AI confirm this? I just want to be sure.
