mafioza2 Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 This is with the most recent version of uTorrent. When you try to make uTorrent the default program to open .torrent files it doesn't work. You have to add torrents manually through the program. Also, this means that magnet torrents don't work at ALL. Is there a previous version around that is confirmed to work in Win 8? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreasvb Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Only current version is supported here, and it's working fine.Something is wrong with your browser's settings if it can't send to µTorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafioza2 Posted July 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 It's not the browser. It's a uTorrent and operating system issue. I had an old version of uTorrent before and it was fine. So there's really no way to download an old client? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreasvb Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Also, could be it got installed in %AppData%\uTorrent now instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafioza2 Posted July 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 I guess you declined to read the sticky threads in this forum before posting.Bizarre rule. Wonder why that is now.I remember back when a new release of uTorrent wasn't working properly, and a bunch of private trackers basically said you had to downgrade or switch clients. I was easily able to find previous versions on the official site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Bizarre rule. Wonder why that is now.Hardly bizzare actually. And it's because we don't have the time or resources to even pretend to support the old versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafioza2 Posted July 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Actually you know what, nevermind. Downloaded Vuze and it's working fine. Would love to go back to u, but can do without the attitude. I'll check back and see if they update the client with a fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreasvb Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Also' date=' could be it got installed in [b']%AppData%\uTorrent now instead.Wait why would this be relevant?Because it will be installed there from now on, and all associations must go to that location.Working as intended, they'll not fix what's not broken. Updating when using as portable is another story, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
