'Automatically load .torrents from' not working

[emersonkb]

Hey all,

I'm having issues with the 'automatically load .torrents from' function.

Automatically load is ticked, deleted load.torrents is not ticked.

Path is 'E:\Torrents\torrentFiles\Autoload'

Copying a .torrent file into this folder does not work.

Tried closing/opening utorrent, nothing.

Tried closing/opening utorrent as administrator (this is on Vista), nothing.

Version is 2.0.1 Beta (18408 build)

I've confirmed the .torrent file is valid and works. I've also tried other torrent files, no avail.

Any ideas?

Is this a network mapped drive?

[emersonkb]

No which is why this is making no sense!

Is there a log file I can check?

I'm having the same issue here.

Path is "I:\DOWNLOADS\Downloading\Torrents" -- and it's a local drive.

It seems that "automatically load .torrents from" function is just beeing ignored.

Using uTorrent 2.0 (build 18620).

Same here on 2.0.1 build 18833:

But utorrent doesn't really ignore it here, it just loads the torrent without any notice to the user ...

I can easily imagine why: probably the same reason there needed to be a limit for showing the Add New Torrent dialog when a bunch of files are drag-and-dropped onto the window. If indeed that were the reason, then I suppose it should also detect the number of new torrents and the number of dialogs already open before unilaterally deciding to add without asking.
