leedsfan83 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Hi.I removed uTorrent from my PC recently as i was going to run it on from my server. Anyway i decided i would rather keep it run it on my PC. I have been trying reinstall on my PC for the last 2 hours, and i can not get it working! I first tried to install (my favourite version) 2.2, that would not work, tried going to 1.8 and i have also tried installing the latest version 3.3.2. Every time I install it seems like it is working fine, but as soon as i try to exit the program it freezes, leaving me no choice but end the process in the task manager.I have uninstalled, removed AppData, removed every trace of utorrent form the computer numerous times yet still can not get a clean install working! I have even removed security software etc Help would be very much appreciated. thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leedsfan83 Posted September 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 i was using AVG free, but that is gone, as is malwarebytes. for the purpose of tying to fix this i have nothing but my hardware firewall on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedsfan83 Posted September 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 I have even tried taking the settings files from the working installation on my server, and replaced the files in my PC install but still nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leedsfan83 Posted September 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I tried that and still no change. sod it I am admitting defeat and reinstalling windows.

rafi Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 No clue why you think reinstalling Windows will help, but I'll register to this thread find out... I suggest to run-as-admin when you re-install... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
