I realize there are multiple posts about this and several helpful videos, archives, etc. However, none explicitly answer my questions.

With NordVPN, I was able to configure qBittorrent to connect to a SOCKS5 host within the app settings, using my NordAccount key and password. This ensured that only my bittorrent traffic and peer connectivity went through the VPN. However, with Mullvad, I'm seeing that I need to download an app, and my understanding is that this will make all my traffic utilize the VPN. Is there a way around this so that only my bittorrent application uses the VPN connection?
