Hari Haran (ID: 000000abf75fa15b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/27/2022 Please integrate Helper Extension feature within the main app, so that we don't need to install two separate extensions. Also, option to select JS Torrent App as the default file opener for .torrent files. This would help to open .torrent file directly from explorer instead of adding manually inside the app.
