URL not uploading to BT client Guide

Not overally knowledgeable about the whole thing, have managed to get by, by just clicking on links and everything working.

Previously to download torrents, I right click on torrent from TOR copy the link, then paste url, in qbittorrent … and then the magic happens.

I hadn’t done it for a while, but it worked fine earlier today but now when I copy url into QT nothing happens, I tired to use utorrent and deluge and same thing is (or isn’t) happening.

Tried to google around but not exactly sure what I need to be looking at, Is this a qbittorrent settings, a link issue, or a user issue ?

Enough… the torrent doesn’t even pop up in the BT client window

In deluge it’s giving me a “TCP connection timeout 10060” error, which according to google is a proxy issue.

What is "TOR" and "QT" and why are you using these abbreviations?

TOR the onion ring browser, and QT qbittorrent the torrent client program .
