conquerist Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Observed behavior uTorrent crashes when clicking "OK" in the preferences window. Steps to reproduce Create a clean %appdata%\utorrent directory Copy utorrent.exe of an affected build (see below) to %appdata%\utorrent Create a settings.dat file in %appdata%\utorrent with the following content (or use the attached file) d10:av_enabledi0e8:installsld13:install_statei3e12:product_code38:{A4D77A09-10EA-4574-8C09-9B6E1A21C95F}eee Run %appdata%\utorrent\utorrent.exe Press the escape key if an installer dialog box (e.g. "Please choose your language") appears Open the preferences page Click on the "OK" button (screenshot) Expected Behavior uTorrent does not crash. Environment Windows 10 x64 Version 1511 (OS build 10586.36)Comments I suspect that this crash is related to the antivirus component failing to load. Build 41372, which is not affected, downloads the antivirus component upon launch ("upgrading to pro"), the antivirus component is installed, and accordingly the crash does not occur. Build 41628 shows "µTorrent (Ad-free)" in the title bar, build 41372 shows "µTorrentPro" Clicking OK in the preferences window has lead to a crash on every launch of build 41628 after upgrading from build 41372. Hijackthis report, Process Explorer report, crashdump, etc. available on request Affected uTorrent builds 41372 (previous stable 2015-11-18) - not affected per se, see the first two comments 41628 (current stable 2016-01-05) - affected 41634 (current beta 2016-01-06) - affected 41712 (updated stable 2016-01-22) - affected 41801 (updated stable 2016-02-12) - affected 41821 (updated stable 2016-02-12) - affected 41865 (updated stable 2016-02-23) - affected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Can you test with Win7/8 compatibility node? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conquerist Posted January 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Crash does not occur with Win7/8 compatibility mode. If/when I get the chance I'll check which one of the 19 compatibility fixes that the compatibility mode applies is working its magic here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Are you with the latest update for Win10 ("November update")? Can be interesting to see which of the 19 is the one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conquerist Posted April 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 It's fixed in 3.4.6 build 42178. Since this bug is related to uTorrent reverting to "Ad-Free", I guess this is indirectly related to the changelog item "Solved #1 Pro support issue (first license check) server-side 3/14". @rafi Sorry, I never got around to checking.
