Failed to connect to uTorrent remote on every launch

Every time I start up uTorrent, I get the error message "Failed to connect to uTorrent remote; press "OK" to review your login settings".

Yes, this message will go away if I choose to participate in uTorrent Remote, however I would rather not, simply because I have absolutely no use for it. If I leave Enable uTorrent Remote Access unchecked under Options - Remote, this message will come up each and EVERY time I start up uTorrent, or if I ever click OK or Apply in the settings window. Every time. Without fail or exception.

This behavior only started recently, when uTorrent started pushing out the RC builds for 3.1 within the past 2 or so weeks, and even with near-daily patching, continues to come up.

I have attempted to reinstall uTorrent (in-place, instead of completely purging it and all my settings, including my RSS feed settings I'm sure), even going for an older version from before the RCs started being pushed for those who opted to upgrade to beta versions, and even then the uTorrent Remote nag kept coming up.

I would like this "feature" to behave elegantly, and not nag the user every time if they choose not to use it.

Version: uTorrent 3.1 (build 26595) [32-bit]

I have the same issue when I try to login from my android phone. It keeps saying torrent client not found. Is your remote client running and connected. On my PC my status says accessible. How do I fix this.. Thx

Not same problem... make another thread..

I found that changing username fixed this' date=' pick something random.[/quote']

What user name? Here??? Already tried to make several fake ones in:

Settings - Remote - Enable uTorrent remote Access, and then turn it off again,

but it does not work...

Just keep changing it and clicking apply, random numbers on the end help a lot.
