Today, I mistakenly deleted the Shortcut of utorrent (version 3.2.3.28705) from windows xp desktop. It has many in-completed torrents. Now, In computer, there is No other utorrent shortcut is available.

All I have is the Utorrent.exe (version 3.2.3.28705), which Run a New Setup.

(i) Whether running this Setup will delete the in-completed torrents??.

I dont want to loose the in-completed torrents. Please tell that How to Open & Continue with that Utorrent, whose shortcut is deleted?

I cant do System restore, due to some reasons.

If i got u correctly, you just need to restore shortcut to installed utorrent.

Try this:

right click on desktop -> new -> shortcut

enter "%PROGRAMFILES%\uTorrent\uTorrent.exe" as a location

enter "Utorrent shortcut which I must not delete again" as a name

It will work only if u installed utorrent with defauts. Hope it helps.

I chose not to create a Start menu entry.

Ok, I bet you won't do that again :)

It should not be running setup again.

So for 3.2.3.xxx

Hold down the Windows key and tap 'R' -> type "%program files/utorrent/" INCLUDING quotes into the text box -> Press Enter -> in the window that opens find uTorrent.exe -> Right Click -> Choose Send To -> Desktop (Create Shortcut) and magically, an icon for uTorrent will appear on your desktop.

well, lets try to find your utorrent disappeared

open explorer (win+E)

enter "%appdata%\utorrent". do you see anything? utorrent.exe? your torrent files?

if yes, just create new shortcut and point "%appdata%\utorrent\utorrent.exe" as a location

if no - try to search your torrent files with any advanced search tool (like total commander ALT+F7 or customize your windows search), save them and feed them to new utorrent installation.

ver 3.2.n installs to Program Files/uTorrent

It is 3.3.n upwards that install in the user profile location.
