Lord Alderaan Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Try clicking the 'here' link...You are placing the webui.zip in the wrong place so µTorrent isn't finding it but clicking the 'here' link should install it for you.

Lord Alderaan Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 It might be a write access problem for utorrent on top of you placing the downloaded webui.zip in the wrong place.Go Start -> Run -> Type: %programfiles% (including the two %) and press enter.Go into the utorrent folder and check if there is a settings.dat file.Yes) If there is a settings.dat then copy the webui.zip there.No) If there is NO settings.dat then go start -> Run -> Type: %appdata% and press enter.Go into the utorrent folder and make sure the settings.dat is there. If it is copy your downloaded webui.zip there.Try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Try copying settings.dat and webui.zip from %appdata%\uTorrent to %programfiles%\uTorrent and restart µTorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Alderaan Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 He was also on IRC and solved it by doing just that Ultima Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nkdy Posted October 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Hi Lord Alderaan and hello Ultima im forgot to mention how the problem is settle, maybe it useful for another n00b webui user like me, actually i solve my problem when i follow ur instruction, i do it for the 2nd times and its work Try clicking the 'here' link...after that i navigate to µTorrent setting folder C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent to see the different, i see two webui zip files in this folder, "webui.zip" and "webui.1220503364.zip", "webui.webui.1220503364.zip" is the files that i dwload from µTorrent Homepage and copy paste in this folder, "webui.zip" is the file when i click 'here link', so my conclusion is this happen coz i didnt rename "webui.webui.1220503364.zip" to "webui.zip", im not really 100% sure, but maybe Lord Alderaan or Ultima can confirm this, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 It has to be named 'webui.zip' to work. Any other name won't be used by utorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I recommend right-clicking, clicking "Save link/target as..." and then entering webui.zip OR you can rename the file to webui.zip after you've downloaded it. (timestamps were added to prevent browsers from serving cached versions)It was explicitly stated as such in the WebUI announcement thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
