fatefullykinetic Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 I've been using programs like BT and BC for years, and I found this problem strange.I just finished installing BT, but whenever I try to open a file or start the program, it tries to install again (getting as far as the ask toolbar but no further). I can't seem to figure out why it's doing this.Any suggested workarounds?Edit: µTorrent DOES work, however. Which I am grateful for. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Try to running utorrent.exe with admin rights one time (or under admin session).If that doesn't work, save a backup copy of %appdata%\utorrent then erase it. Then reinstall µT and copy back %appdata%\utorrent to retrieve your history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 Can you create a 0 byte settings.dat file in the same folder as utorrent.exe and then try running utorrent.exe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomorrow Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Yep i just had the same problem.Researched online for about 20min and found a working solution(some have said this works and for me it worked):*Open uTorrent*The install will pop up again*Click Next-Next until you reach the place where you have to select install directory*Uncheck all boxes*Click Next or whatever the button isuTorrent should now start up normally.Just in case close uTorrent(exit program) and click the shortcut again.It should now start up normally.Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
