Hmmm. Could you help me reproduce this?

1. I closed qBT
2. > rm -rf ~/.qbittorrent
3 > qbittorrent
4 ~/.qbittorrent/ folder is created with perm: drwxr-xr-x 5 chris chris 4096 2009-11-16 17:04 .qbittorrent, which is sufficient
5. I add a torrent to the list and ~/.qbittorrent/BT_backup is created with these sufficient perms: drwxr-xr-x 2 chris chris 4096 2009-11-16 17:04 BT_backup
6 and inside I have my torrent, also with sufficient perms: -rw-r--r-- 1 chris chris 14159 2009-11-16 17:04 c95d9a676995e6e59bc59fc7b09020f492b7f283.torrent

You said in a previous message than "For my user_name, or root was ok, but not for my user_group.". qBittorrent should be run with your username so the group permissions don't apply anyway.

My qbittorrent is running with user 'chris' so it has write permission in my home folder.
$ ps aux | grep qbittorrent
