Some common questions that might come up.

Why are there two production builds (one for Unix-based systems and one for Windows)?

One of the really useful features of this web UI is being able to explore a pseudo-filesystem to quickly choose where you want to save a torrent. This file system is populated based on where you have torrents downloaded/seeding. The file path delimiter becomes important here because Windows and Unix-based systems use different ones ('\' and '/', respectively).

Choosing the right build helps ensure a smooth experience when using the filesystem explorer.

My web UI isn't appearing correctly after upgrading to a newer version. What's up with that?

This is likely an issue with the configured web UI settings. Sometimes, either during new major versions or when making large leaps between versions, how we manage user preferences are refactored/upgraded and this can introduce problems.

To resolve, try resetting your web UI settings by either:

  1. Login to the web UI > go to User icon (top-right) > Settings > Web UI > Other > Reset Web UI Settings
  2. While logged in, open chrome dev tools and go to Application > Local Storage > Open first item under this > Right-click on it > Clear

If neither of these solutions work, you may consider opening a new issue.
