uTorrent version 2.2 Beta download location bug

For some reason this version seems to download the files straight into my download folder (i.e. All files and folders from Download A all go in ...\downloads\ instead of ...\downloads\Download A\)

At first I thought it was just poor download structure, the fault of the uploader, but now that it has happened at least 3 times to me I'm convinced uTorrent is to blame.

Anything I may be missing? I have changed the default download location to a second HDD, if that makes a difference.

Which version of 2.2 are you running? When you said you changed the default location of the download folder, do you mean the Windows one or µTorrent's?

Oh, also, uTorrent's Upload Speed cap doesn't seem to work either. I cap it as to not draw too much attention from my ISP, but it is completely unrestrained.

Also, just updated to 2.2 Beta build 20896

Huh, that's something I've never had to do in the past, but it seems to be working.

Now I'm still having issues with the download folder path. I've done this several times before, I just had to reset it due to a recent reload. And it seems that after I updated to the 2.2 Beta, it doesn't download into the torrent's own respective folder within my \downloads\ folder.

---Location of Downloaded Files---

[x] Put new downloads in: [ ]Always show dialog on manual add

F:\downloads\

So here's another example.

I'm downloading Download A, Download A has the following files:

DownloadA.iso

readme.txt

txtfile.txt

Normally, all three files should download to, in my case, "F:\Downloads\Download A"

Instead all three files are going straight into "F:\Downloads"

Which spreads them among other folders and files.

What do you mean?

It's a unique download, if that's what you're asking. No files of the same name are present in my downloads folder. But what does that have to do with this Beta's seeming lack of function of creating folders for each torrent file? I mean, shouldn't downloading DownloadA.torrent automatically create the folder \DownloadA\ in my specified download location, which the torrent then downloads it's own file structure?

Yes, in <Preferences><Directories> Location of downloaded files:

check: [X] Always show dialog on manual add

and adding torrent file will be with dialog as usually!

I've never had it show dialog on manual add, I have it set to automatically download into said folder, and the program is simply NOT putting torrents into their respective folders.
