    That's only $17.14 a day. You definitely got this. Heck, you'll have the $17.14 done right away in the morning and be chuckling to yourself wondering why you didn't believe in yourself more than you should. You know you got this. You just need to remind yourself that. "Self, this is not a problem. This is a minor challenge that I am more than up for". Bring it on, and let me show you, just how capable I am".

    MY QBC is haunted. Since the update (10-18) each time I turn it on the PRE's quickly accumulate with the latest going above 80%. It was only on for less than 2 minutes. Two pandas were created and those were turning on and off rapidly.

    Did I miss something about the update? Is there another update or setting that should be applied?

    Are you running other scrapers, PandaCrazy, or Stax at the same time? They will massively interfere if you run them at the same time as QBC.

    If you don't manually manage Pandas, you should be pretty low. I left it on to do its own thing, and over a week it held steady at 0.6% with hundreds of Watchers.

    Otherwise, might restart computer(not just QBC) and apply updates. It's working fine on both my devices with years age-difference.

    If you go to the Panda Bar, you can watch the the Att (Attempted) section and see which Panda is giving you all the errors. You might reset that watcher if applicable, just a quick toggle off and on.

    Then delete the Panda, and see if it's creating a new one.

    I don't run other scripts at the same time. It has done this each time I turn it on since the update. When I turn it on, it immediately starts doing its thing and PRE's start happening instantly. I've run QBC for quite some time and didn't have this issue prior to the update. Haven't had time to address it as my grandmother fell and I've been dealing with that.

    I've restarted and applied updates multiple times since this started. It's still doing the same thing.

    Which Pandas are the ones that are running and causing the PREs?
    If you delete them, does watcher create a new one?

    Yes it creates a new one and it's collecting HIT for a Panda that's not on. I'll use HF and PC for now until @ChrisTurk can help.

    QBC is seriously haunted on my pc.
