I paid a one-time fee years ago for Adobe Premiere Pro, but when they moved to subscription-based service I lost access to my old edition of Premiere. It's like pulling teeth, I get so close but I'm so far.

I understand that this comment isn't helpful, but you're gonna save yourself a lot of headaches by just transitioning to DaVinci Resolve.

Read the instructions, but also sometimes windows defender or whatever helpfully deletes suspicious files that you need.

Unrelated program, but cracking solidworks required removing every trace of the student copy I had installed (well, registries and program files at least)

Read instructions/nfo

Read the nfo file for directions. Open it with a text editor. You probably missed a step.

How is that anything like pulling teeth?

I digress, this most likely isn't on your client qBittorrent, but on the files delivered via the .torrent file. Maybe search a different torrent file, esp. one from a trusted uploader?

Update your browser I guess

Maybe they are talking about Edge Webview

Use christitus winutil. It had a 3rd party script integrated that is able to remove edge. Afterwards, reinstall edge webview, otherwise a bunch of stuff is broken.

Webviews are really cool, better than Electron garbage for sure, but they tie you to the OS. at least on windows I guess you could build a hardened chromium as webview, but never heard of anyone doing that
