downloads (one of) the same torrent over and over again if torrent is removed

[themusicgod1]

Every other torrent seems to behave as follows

Torrent completes, it seeds for awhile, and I have a script that every morning clears out the completed stuff from my ~/Downloads folder --- when it is cleared out the "completed" tororents go to Paused

for some reason

this one, single torrent after completing in the morning, and seeding all day, the next time I restart (only sometimes, but maybe 1 in 2 times that i start qbittorrent) ...it starts the torrent again as if it never completed downloading. This results in one torrent being downloaded over and over and over again :

what should happen:

the behaviour of torrents should be consistent - the process should be either (for all torrents)

option A
1. downloading
2. complete
3. seeding
(when i move the files away and then restart the program)
4. paused
(until i update the upload path to where it should be)

or

option B
1. downloading
2. complete
3. seeding
(when i move the files away and then restart the program)
4. downloading

i'd obviously prefer option A but either way it should be consistent

interesting this is still the case if it's paused
