mike20021969 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Can you check if it replaced your old EXE at the exact location it was before the update ? Where do you have it?I cant because...I updated uTorrent in SandBoxie first. The I ran the updates folder in SandBoxie to get the installer. I do this because uTorrent doesn't install to Program Files - it didn't occur to me to see where the .exe was replaced.I'll go back a build and see what happens as you asked. Back shortly....

rafi Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 There might be an issue, forcing you to "edit" updates.dat and remove the new entry using BEncode util. (or just rename it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafi Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Seems to have issues... Do you have the exe at the same place as your settings files? or all are in %appdata%\utorrent ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike20021969 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Do you have the exe at the same place as your settings files? or all are in %appdata%\utorrent ?No. I always manually install to Program Files/uTorrent. The only thing in there is uTorrent.exe.Everything else is in Application Data/uTorrent folder.(If it looks a bit bare file wise, it's because I clean almost everything out of it - as long as I have no torrents - before installing new downloaded versions).

rafi Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 --2013-05-16: Version 3.3.1 (build 29698)- Fix: Crash at the end of install3.3.1 b29698/Beta/RC: My 10 "most wanted"/open issuesOverall - looks like a job well done with 3.3.1 Stopper issues:1. The default cache size is still 32M and not 128M (speed-tab->Disk statistics->xx of 32 MB)[b29704]2. Updating with "standalone" exe+settings -> puts the new exe into %appdata%\uTorrent (with wrong settings) instead of just replacing the exe. Plus, backup/restore operation is not documented anywhere... 3. "Add torrent" dialogue option ( 'Create - subfolder') are not being preserved/persistent in the subsequent "Add"sOther known issues that might effect some people:4. Auto-shutdown options do not take forced seeding jobs into account, and aborts them even when set to "when everything completes" ...5. Occasional 'Disk overload' throttles speeds with some users, mainly at higher speeds (for unknown reasons, yet... ) http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=729144#p729144 6. Help file not updated yet for 3.3.1, plus a wrong help-file-version is being retrieved by F1 (3.2.1, instead of 3.3) or with 404 error7. resume.dat file is not being updated per-event/state-change, causing some data-loss & other side-effects between sessions8. RSS auto-added torrents have the wrong "Added" time-stamp.9. Pieces are not being written from cache to disk ASAP (if set to do so) and are being stuck in cache, plus there are a few reported cases (unconfirmed) of infinite "flushing" when download completes (leftover pieces in cache?) or infinite "allocation" when download starts (permission/priv. issues? Admin priv. needed?).10 . Setting/changing any speed limit causes the speed to temporarily drop. Did I miss anything important?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osm0sis Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Did I miss anything important?... %appdata%/uTorrent still fills up with torrent files despite changing the default remove option to +torrent; pretty annoying to discover 300 of your old torrents still kicking around. That's a broken option and uTorrent should clean up after itself if I tell it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beasly Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 just because the issue doesn't bother you doesn't diminish it's importance. You are not a moderator.I, for one would like to see "forum mod" status in their profiles(under member name) if applicable...Some here that act like mods but are not...at least not mentioned in their profiles.Too many times users post because of lack of knowledge, confused or just new to the concept...Yeah, I know about the many help files but alittle human interaction never hurts!

Deo Domuique Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 So... in the final 3.3.1 version, we won't have the ability to install utorrent wherever we want? It should be in C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming only? Why? Is it again cause of the devs being incompetent while they don't know how to make the new update system work otherwise? Or they want it to be as hidden as possible for some reason?And here, it keeps all the previous downloaded versions... How do I stop that, anyone knows?C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent\updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deo Domuique Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 It is an RC, not a final...

rafi Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 advanced->gui.default_del_action or right-click the delete toolbar button. Maybe because I have it set so, I don't see any issues. Users do make mistakes with the mouse&menus... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
