I ask this because whilst *arr apps supposedly import downloaded torrents to their respective media folders, my downloads folder for qbittorrent is over 200GB in size when I’ve got zero incomplete downloads.

Have I set something up wrong? Or is it setting some kind of hard link between the downloads and media folder?

    qbit_manage has a feature where it’ll check whether a hard link exists outside of the torrent directory, and deletes the torrent if it’s only in the (qbit-)torrent directory.

    This would’ve automatically removed the torrent once you’ve deleted the files from *arr. I recommend against deleting files from Plex, as *arr could detect them missing and redownload them.
