[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

I am assuming you are talking about peer to peer connections that the downloading/uploading torrents are doing

Nope, it is the pieces that are cached and not committed to disc and/or pieces that are being written to disc.

are there any consequences of closing "ungracefully"?

all downloading jobs going into recheck every start up and/or a risk of data corruption.

You forgot the µ ...

Probably due to it being the BitTorrent logo.

[µTorrent 3.3.1 RC]

It keeps wanting to install in Application Data rather than Program Files.

That is a 'By Design' change in ver 3.3 onwards.

Thanks, Captain obvious, I know it. Wouldn't it more comfortable to remove duplicating locations?

If you USE the drop-down to select a location instead of browsing or typing in a new location it won't have duplicates.

[µTorrent 3.3.1 RC]

That is simply the historical list of directories YOU have selected and used in the "Save in" select list.

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

Is it that you are assuming that the number of upload slots is the number that the client HAS TO USE ALL THE TIME?

Because it isn't, it is the MAXIMUM allowed to be used for any job at any point in time, if it only needs one it WILL ONLY USE ONE and that ONE slot maybe in use for SEVERAL PEERS

An upload slot is NOT EQUAL TO A CONNECTION

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

Gentleman, Ladies or any combination of the two. Pray do tell, what do Seeds have to do with available UPLOAD slots an a client???

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

and by the way the job in initial seeding has only ONE peer in any case, as it is a private job transferring some files to a client.

Difficult to actually test without having the same torrent as they are seeing the problem on

Not so . I did. It happens with every torrent' date=' at least for the first few minutes. I suggest you better do the same ...[/quote']

SO you didn't consider that it may be that I am not seeing this "problem".

The last two downloading jobs have been running for about 20 minutes.

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

Oh and using the word probably, means that it is a suggestion of what may be the cause NOT a confirmed statement of fact.

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

Difficult to actually test without having the same torrent as they are seeing the problem on, so "guessing" based on the information provided is all that ANYONE can do!!!!!!

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

It's not private tracker. Peers were found by with DHT and peer exchange.

Not if the only peer flag is 'U'. A peer from PEX with have a 'X' flag and from DHT a 'H' flag as well.

Upload it somewhere, post the url in bbcode img tags

Use [img ] button above

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

Probably due to short sighted tracker operators who are blocking newer versions of uTorrent.

[My display has changed suddenlyDisplay]

Screen shot of GUI main window then please.

Blanking out the job names first though.

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

So?????

It means that only ONE peer is connected and that peer is "Unchoked" (allowed to get data), You can't change that and NEITHER can the developers.

YOU CANNOT FORCE PEERS TO CONNECT TO YOUR CLIENT

You could have only one job running with a THOUSAND upload slots, and if only ONE peer wants to connect, that is ALL you will get.

If this is on a private tracker, it is simply an effect of gross 'overseeding' by idiots who think that it will help their ratio in some way.

[My display has changed suddenlyDisplay]

right click the column headers and reset columns.

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

They never require AUC,

UAC by the way.

If the applications are installed in the CORRECT directory ("%systemdrive%\program files") which is a trusted location, a UAC prompt will only occur if and when an application is altering settings that affect machine startup.

[µTorrent 3.3 Stable]

3.3 and 3.4 install into %appdata%/uTorrent/ to bypass the UAC (User Access Control) and allow "silent updates" to the client.

Oh' date=' really? Then why do I get a UAC prompt (you read my other posts today)?[/quote']

Maybe you should read the replies, and having several threads for ONE issue makes it bloody difficult to figure out what is going off.

Unless you are THE Administrator applications that "run at startup" NEED elevated permissions to start up.

[µTorrent 3.3.1 RC]

lousy useless links too ...

Naah, only one of them was actually useless, and is now rectified.

Remedy for the "Locked Categories " problem posted by w000t AT http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=710914#p710914

Hint:

in the downloading category there should be no 'green' jobs.

[µTorrent 3.3.1 RC]

Try looking at the colours of the status bars.
