Hey there @romanoh this is perfectly fine to post it here. It seems like there is a double quoutes on the end of the directory path:
nome de directório D:\Torrents" é inválido.

I've seen this issue before and seem to be a bug with dotnet core. So try running subsync like following:

SubSync.exe D:\Torrents

Instead.

does it go for subfolders also?

Yes, it does! 😄

Edit: I can't remember if the issue happened if you run SubSync.exe from a .bat file or from a shortcut with the argument having a double quoute. But you could try either. Otherwise just go without the quoutes as you don't have any space in the folder name anyway.

It seems it is working now removing the quotes.
some questions:
can it download 2 subtitles: exemple: english and Portuguese at the same time (or one or the other if it is the only one)?
where it goes to fech the subtitles?
it needs to be open to auto syncrnonize ?
if the subtitle already exits it wll write above it?

thank you for your great work

Great that it worked now!

Alright, all of them are great questions.

can it download 2 subtitles: exemple: english and Portuguese at the same time (or one or the other if it is the only one)?

Unfortunately right now it will only download one of the subtitles. So if you start subsync with the parameter -lang portuguese;english it will try and download a portuguese subtitle if one exists, otherwise it will try and get the english one.

Future update will include a postfix on the subtitle filenames with the language code, that will allow multiple languages to be downloaded.

where it goes to fech the subtitles?

Latest commit changed so that SubSync will only download subtitles from OpenSubtitles.com
But earlier versions also included a subtitle fallback search on subscene in case the subtitle couldnt be found on OpenSubtitles. However the fallback logic was faulty and would sometimes put the download in a bad loop. And was therefor removed until it has been remade.

if the subtitle already exits it wll write above it?

No, not at all. If a subtitle already exists it will just skip that video. It will never overwrite an existing subtitle file. However! There are cases when a subtitle file will still be downloaded even though one exists. And that is when the existing subtitle filename is not the same as the video filename.
