Switeck Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 ...Depends on whether Microsoft will make Vista compatible with µTorrent.The bugs are almost entirely on Microsoft's side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 It does run on Vista, just with some issues that are fixable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry6521 Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 i cant see Microsoft doing any thing ,i was kinda hoping utorrent would fix the problem or a lot more will drift away which is a shame as its a superb little program i don't like azureus as much, i have been trying to find out how you can disable DHT with no luck, in utorrents it was so easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Try searching the Troubleshooting forum. There's some threads on how to fix Vista issues.Or you can wait a month or two for 1.7, which should hopefully have most Vista issues worked out.

Dark Shroud Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Or you could just take the easy road and set the compatibilty mode to XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAbReAkA Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 no need to run in compability mode..the only glitch i've seen under vista is that it fails to associate itself with torrent files.. that's due some new modifications in the way vista handles filetypes and default programs.. running as administrator (right click->run as administrator) at least once will do fine for that..

alleycatsr Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 I am running Vista Home Prem.; utorrent is working exactly as it did in XP. The only problem I had was that I had to forward my port on my router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
