Do we just delete the existing directory? Will settings be saved?

Yes, they should be save, but you could check them before uninstall process in %LOCALAPPDATA% or %APPDATA% in folder named qbittorrent

I know it is awkward, but it is designed in such way. https://forum.qt.io/topic/56103/update-an-installation-with-an-offline-installer-setup-of-qt-installer-framework

I don't have an ability to host a website at this moment, but there are workarounds, I save them here for future updates
