qBittorrent VPN kill switch

Setting up VPN killswitch

1. First install windscribe VPN.

2. You should see a new network adapter called "Windscribe VPN" under some "Ethernet #" as shown below. Remember the Ethernet # for your Windscribe VPN interface. In this example it is "Ethernet 4"

3. Start qBittorrent and click on the Gear for settings. Then Advanced > Network Interface. Select your Wireguard VPN interface. For my example that interface is "Ethernet 4" as described in step 2 above. After that click "OK".
