pyman Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I have utorrent version 3.1.4 on Windows Vista.I am new to utorrent (new to torrenting full stop actually) I had once use the very similar bittorrent client but utorrent was recently recommended to me.Anyway, my problem is that everytime I start utorrent all my old torrent files re-appear in the GUI even though I have moved or deleted the downloaded content.I read in the help files that the torrent files is saved in the settings folder %appdata%\user\roaming\utorrent\settings and indeed I found lots of torrent files in there which I went of to delete but the nest time I started utorrent, they re-appeared again!Where is the program getting this information from?I didn't have this problem with bittorrent which is a very similar interfaceall my settings are defaultsetting, coz I know no different! BTWAny help appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Probably because of RSS feeds or an automatically load .torrents from setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyman Posted March 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Well f7 feeds shows no feedsIn the meantime. I uninstalled utorrent, I then searched the registry for utorrent and deleted everything, then I ran ccleaner registry cleaner and deleted the two further entries that found. I restarted. I then downloaded utorrent 3.1.3 and installed upon opening....you've guessed it! all my old torrent files appear again!!!!Just where are these torrent fioes being resurected from?

DreadWingKnight Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Have you tried nuking %appdata%\utorrent and the extra files outside of the utorrent application from %programfiles%\utorrent with uTorrent shut down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
