fr0y0 Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Whenever I start µTorrent, there is a second utorrent.exe process appearing in task manager. It stays there after closing uT.When I try to kill it - whether uT is running or not - I get an "access denied" message. My Windows user account has admin rights. Starting task manager with admin rights doesn't help either. The ghost stays there until I shut down my PC.I've had this problem for the last three versions. Always running the latest.This gets incredibly annoying when I have to move files our of my incoming folder (I have uT set up to do it automatically, but sometimes it "forgets" [yes, uT is running with admin rights aswell]), because I get the "file in use" message and can't move them. Lockhunter and other "unlockers" don't help.Just two weeks ago I had to reinstall Windows because of a crashed HDD. Most of the time problems like this one here get fixed along with a completely fresh install of Windows, but it didn't.Help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 there's an IPv6 bug in windows 7 that some people are encountering that is the actual cause of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fr0y0 Posted July 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 So it'd be fixed by removing the IPv6 protocol from my network connection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
