Acharn Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 I have two users on my computer. One is the Administrator account (not named that, of course), and the other is a user account. I usually log on to the Admin account first, then log in to the user account to do my browsing on the web. However, I used to do my browsing from the Admin account, and so I had a shortcut on that desktop to uTorrent. I also have a shortcut to the Network Diagnostic tool on that desktop, since it requires a user with admin privileges. So most of the time I run uTorrent from my admin account, but recently I've started downloading while logged in to the user account as well. I was puzzled to notice that when I have uTorrent running on both accounts, the instance on the user account shows a network problem. The instance on the admin account showed green. Today after I rebooted to get my network connection back I logged in to the user account without going to the admin account first, and uTorrent now shows green. Does the program dislike having two instanced running on the same machine> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 A port can only be bound to one instance of an application at a time, the other uTorrent probably got pissed because the first one had the port it wanted. Why would you run two instances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
