csutak40 Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I have written about this last May, but the problem still exists. At the time, I received a reply that the problem was solved with the next update, but alas, that is not the case. Still happening, nearly a year later. I have appended my original post several times, but thought it may be better to start a new thread as I seem to be the only person left reading that thread. So, this is my problem: Every time I download a torrent, I get a pop-up telling me that an older version of uTorrent is running, would I like to close it and open the latetst one. Problem being, I can only find one version running (even in the add/remove program list) Since this started happening last year, I have purchased a new computer, clean installed uTorrent, and after a week or so, the same problem started happening again This doesn't seem to stop the torrent from downloading, but it is just frustrating. Two new things started happening lately. When I reboot, I get a popup asking if I would like to install and older version. I can't understand what that is about. Incidentally, I no longer get told when a new version is available. I just checked - I was running 38656, but the latest is 38758 (now installed) And the latest, but most peculiar development... A few times now, I download a torrent, it starts downloading, then a couple of minutes lates completely disappears! I have to download it again to make the download "stick" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you mind telling me where they should be pointing to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 They should be pointing at the current version of uTorrent, not the old version they currently are pointed at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only find one version of uTorrent installed. I hope I am not misunderstanding what you mean by pointing, but I have a shortcut for uTorrent (although it mostly opens with Windows) and it is pointing at the only version I have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
