  1. Maybe it's their rush mentality that they think they have to release fixes just to make the swarms of people think they are actively updating the software...I really hope that is not the case.

    I have said a couple of time that I don't see what the frenetic pace of 'development' is about, but it is certtainly not about quality control.

    Yeah.. I don't know what other software besides uTorrent your testing but this is not my experience AT ALL with beta and alpha software, I'm about ready to give up following this.

    uTorrent is the only software (from people I don't know personally) that I do any alpha or beta testing on these days.

    Don't have the space for rack mount 'lab rat' machines, or the inclination to have multiple VMs set up.

    Wow! You guys really need to get youir sh*t together...Releasing and immediately pulling your fixes is becoming the norm lately.

    No matter how much resilience testing is done with debug builds, developers cannot cover every possible environment, and 'bug fixes' often have 'unfortunate' effects that cannot be anticipated.

    Take Windows 'Me' and Vista as examples, many fundamental 'issues' in both of those were not found until people had PAID to be 'mass RC' testers (although Microsoft prefer to call them customers).

    And it might be wise to leave the disaster called "Windows 8" out of the discussion.

  3. I don't create a new thread, so your argument is invalid

    So you chose to narrow the parameters rather than accept the spirit of the forum rules, ok then.

    However if you read right to the end of the item

    so do a search to see if there’s already a relevant thread before you submit an entirely new post.
  4. I logged in to find a solution to a seeding problem (not caused by the program- just something I did) and found it with a simple search.

    Thank you u-T team you are great ! :D

    Hi,

    I have joined the community to say thanks for the information on how to get rid of the advertisement banners

    on top of the torrents. Thanks again.

    WOW! Could we get these two posts pinned and made essential reading before posting? :) :)

  5. and opened this dialogue with it's metadata...
    Maybe, but until the Ok button on the Add Torrent dialogue is 'clicked' the job is NOT loaded and is NOT commited to resume.dat, and as such, the application has no record of the .torrent file that has been created from the magnet data.
  6. 1. USB or normal portable, doesn't matter.

    2. Add Torrent from URL.

    3. Paste magnet link.

    4. Cancel dialog when it has got the .torrent

    Result: Renamed .torrent-file remains (even after exiting µTorrent).

    Perfectly normal behaviour there, if the .torrent file has not been loaded, the client does not 'know' it actually exists. Because cancelling the job before the loading process takes place means it has not been added to resume.dat

  7. i think Devs are not interested to further developement of utorrent.

    As I have noted before, development moves at the pace and requirements of the owners NOT the users.

    BitTorrent are a commercial enterprise and as such both clients are commodities that are there to increase the revenue for the company. You as the end user count for very little, and as it is with so many of the larger software houses, are simply mass beta and release testers.
