Hello.
I'm completely at a loss as to how to fix this issue or why it happens in the first place.
If I click a magnet link a new instance of transmission will open each time. The first time is fine and will download whatever it is I'm trying to get. The second time will include the original download, paused, and the second download. the third time, a new transmission window once again and this time with all three downloads. If I then delete any of these downloads and attempt to start them again transmission will tell me that it can't duplicate an ongoing download. It's very confusing and I don't have the first clue as to how to repair it.
I'm using Linux Mint Cinnamon 19.1 with Firefox 70.0 and Transmission 2.92 (14714) which was embedded with this version of linux.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please note, I use Linux but I'm not a computer person. I just hate windows.
