Apparently QBittorrent changed its API specification for version 4.1+: https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/wiki/Web-API-Documentation

HTPC-Manager does not seem to support the new API

Could you reopen the issue at the new maintained repository, please: https://github.com/HTPC-Manager/HTPC-Manager/issues

NB: It is a Python 3 migration, so if you want to use it, you likely need to adjust your startup scripts/services accordingly 😉.
