Suggestion

an option (a checkbox) to disable all automatic file rechecks everywhere, so it'd leave only manual recheck when user clicks so

Use case

keeping track of completed torrents you have already deleted files for
forced shutdowns but when you know nothing broke
seamless migration from other torrents client with all torrent states intact so nothing would keep a large number of users from migrating to qBT
sparing the hard drive and overall performance improvement

You can use "Skip hash check" option while you're adding torrent.

That's not nearly enough or anyhow applicable for any of listed use cases

if I deleted the file and foget remove the torrent,I just want qb only show the wrong status.
not auto recheck and auto download.
Or if the hard disk issueI'll know which file is wrong

Most of the time is some files miss. when the client restarts, there will show 100% until some other requests the file

I've faced unwanted recheck of stopped torrents too, so I second this sane request.

In fact, recently we have tried to reduce the cases of automatic rechecking of torrents as much as possible. Currently, it should never (intentionally) do a recheck, except in rare cases in which we have not found a way to avoid it (for example, when manually changing the path of saving torrent files if the target location contains matched files). If you encounter automatic rechecking of files in other cases, then either you accidentally launched it yourself, or this is a bug that should be reported as an Issue that includes all the accompanying circumstances, logs, etc.

Sometimes when a drive loses connection, qbt does this. I've found that generally if I close and restart it after properly connecting/mounting the drive, it will see the files and start seeding them. Other times, it doesn't work. And it can take days to recheck a collection on a USB drive. In fact, it happened a few days ago. Would you still be able to sift through the logs for that? Do they include the filenames of my downloads? Or should I wait until it happens again to get fresher logs and a more specific rundown on what happened.

I use SMB sharing for seeding, when the server used is not started, This function will try to re-hash, this should not happen...
