It seems like uTorrent is already running but not responding.

Ok guys,

 

I apologize in advance for my lack of computer knowlage.

I've been using uTorrent 3.3.2 for a couple months and have had NO problems until now. At first it lost the pathway or something. So i uninstalled the program and re-intalled it again. Everything looked ok, but when I went to download a torrent it gave me this error message:

 

It seems like uTorrent is already running but not responding.
Please close all uTorrent processes and try again.

 

I've found and read through at least three different forum threads on the same problem but I can't seem to solve the issue. I'm slightly confused on how to even try to solve the issue. If anyone feel like taking a little extra time to walk me through "barney style" how to fix this, I'd really appreciate it.

 

P.S. Idk if this matters but the torrent site I use is kickasstorrents

Hi there I am having the exact same problem any chance you figured out how to fix this and can help me

Same problem here in 3 different computers with Win7 32bit & 64bit.

 

uTorrent freezes and "not responding" randomly.

Close uTorrent, open task manager, switch to processes tab and end the uTorrent client, it should be under "background processes''. Don't open uTorrent, just download the torrent like you usually would and make sure ''Open with'' is selected. It should open the torrent in uTorrent without hassle.
