DreadWingKnight Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Main preferences under "Windows Integration"Additionally, if you're using firefox you may need to clear the download action for torrents in its preferences (under downloads, view and edit actions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Indeed, check the FAQ on association. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 "First thing" and "that other thing" is not very informative. Bothered reading the FAQ regarding associations like I told lulua? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stelban Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 i had the same problem: when ever i clicked on a download link, the dialog box asking that i confirm i wanted to open uTorrent would appear but when i selected OK, it would ways fail with an unspecified error. To get around this i would have to save the .torrent file instead and then manually open that same .torrent file once inside uTorrent via file/add torrent. a pita!So i poked around and figured it out, at least on my machine. I run XP SP2 but i think this mechanism for file association hasn't changed in a very long time with Windows.I opened file manager, selected tools/folders options; selected the file types tab; scrolled down until i found an entry listed alphabetically for .torrent; selected the change button in the details for torrent grouping; selected uTorrent as the program i wanted to use to open this type of file; checked the box labeled "always use the selected program to open this kind of file"; pressed ok to confirm the change; and pressed ok to confirm the update to torrent.From that point on, my association worked perfectly.
