Can't install search plugins on qBitorrent? (lemmy.world)

I've tried googling, nothing I'm finding is working.

I updated qBittorrent, updated Python, tried deleting the engine folder files and restarting. Everytime I try to add new search files from here it says not supported.

I try clicking check for updates and a bunch of popups appear saying "Couldn't install "(search plugin name)" search engine plugin. Plugin is not supported."

The execution log says both "not supported" and "plugin outdated, updating to version x.xxx"

I'm at a loss here.

Okay, so I for sure am running the latest qBittorrent (4.5.4), and I uninstalled Python and reinstalled it (3.11.4 amd64) making sure that access to Path was checked this time. Rebooted and it still isn't working for me. :-\ I updated the OP with a screenshot of what I'm seeing.

Hmm... Unfortunately, I can't think of much else to try. Just to be sure, you're right-clicking and saving as the .py files to your computer and then importing them into qBittorrent, right? I tried using the links and they didn't work for me, either.
