Cannot update utorrent from 1.8.1 to 1.8.2 build 14458

Sorry if this has been posted before. I have search everywhere for a possible answer.

When I check for updates I get the pop-up telling me "A new version of utorrent (1.8.2 build 14458) is available. Do you want to download and install it?"

when I press yes I get 2 error messages

1st - "There was a problem installing the language file for uTorrent."

2nd - "There was a problem downlaoding the update for uTorrent, Please try later or visit http://utorrent,com. Sorry for the inconvenience."

I have gone to the website and tried to download the update directly from there with no success either. I have been trying to update my Utorrent for several days but I keep getting the same error messages.

any suggestions? Thanks

What happens when you try downloading it directly?

And perhaps it might be worth noting that Shaw is known to throttle BitTorrent -- whether they've turned to mangling µTorrent downloads, I don't know, but it's still something to keep at the back of your mind.

When I try to download the update directly from uTorrent after I press run my uTorrent window opens and nothing happens.

Thanks for the info about Shaw, I was not aware of that. I have noticed a signifcant decrease in my downloading speed recently. But I have always had Shaw service and have been using BT for several years now and I have never had a problem previously (with speed or updates). Do you think this could be a problem?

Thanks again

What do you mean by "nothing happens"? The download completes, and you are able to run the executable? Have you exited µTorrent and replaced the existing µTorrent executable?

I really doubt Shaw is blocking downloads of µTorrent, but it's just an "out there" possibility if we come up with nothing else :P

When I downloaded the update from the website I was able to run the file. But it just opened my uTorrent window and no update happened. I did not exit out of uTorrent when I did this.

So I closed uTorrent and tried it again as per your suggestion and it worked!!

Thank you so much.
