Firon Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Check your antivirus app to make sure it's not blocking access to %AppData%\uTorrent. You may also need to reset permissions on that folder and all the files in it so your user has access to write to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nleric Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Thanks for the quick reply, I am using AVG and have added Utorrent to the allow list , athough it does,nt appear to be blocking, have also unclicked the read only option on the folder as you suggested but still getting the same error message, I notice there is also a file called resume.dat.new in the folder.Noel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 In addition you can try to run one time utorrent.exe as admin (right click on the exe). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nleric Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Tried to run it as admin, got a message "it apears Utorrent is already running but not responding" clickc to close and got the error message again. (It is functioning properly otherwise)Thanks,Noel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nleric Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Thanks for sticking with me on this, it must be my system as when I run Hijack I get the following errors (right clicking does not give me an option to run as Admin)" For some reason your system denied write acess to the hosts file. IF any hijacked domains are in this file, hijack may not be able to fix this.------------------------------------------------------------------Second error message:Cannot find the c:/Program Files\TrendMicro\HiJack\hijackthis.log file.do you want to create a new file?

moogly Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 Are you an admin on your computer? Because maybe that's why µT fails to write and save resume.dat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isepiq Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 Turn OFF UAC control. That is what causes this problem. Control Panel, User Accounts, User Account Control Settings. ALL the way to completely OFF. You will have to reboot your computer for the change to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
