So I downloaded this Pre-Installed game from a respected torrent site. But whenever I run the game, the bottom 5 files get updated/changed apparently. And this torrent goes to the error section in Qbittorrent. Now I have to delete the exe and other small files from my folder and redownload them again through this torrent else this torrent wouldn't seed.

So I would not be able to seed those bottom 5 files unless I have a completely fresh install of the game ? and that means, I either have to unselect those bottom 5 files from my torrent client or create a copy of the game in another Folder so the exe and other python files don't get updated as I play the game ?

Fair, but it’s something painless do to next time someone might be installing a new system or migrating disks. Until not too long ago I didn’t know about these kind of options, so just knowing is a good first step even without further action

Yeah I agree with you here, your comment definitely has helped me finally make the switch (mentally, at least) to btrfs. I was a slow hold-out on ext4, but my next install I'll go the butter route.
