[SOLVED] How to fix utorrent not installing on windows 10 & windows 11

========================
INFO:
Here how to fix if uTorrent not opening its showing “uTorrent is already running, but not responding” Please close all uTorrent processes and try again.

To open (download) torrented files on a Windows computer you need Torrent client software, such as BitTorrent or uTorrent. With more than 150 million + installations (68% market share) uTorrent is the most popular torrent client that lets you download and upload torrents with flexible seeding options. But sometimes windows users might experience uTorrent not responding or uTorrent keeps crashing or freezing once a new torrent is added and download initiated. Few Users report, uTorrent not opening or launching, especially while trying to download huge files.

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

uTorrent not opening windows 10
The potential causes could be the system firewall, Virus malware infection (most common) or you have third-party antivirus installed such as Avast, which disables the P2P shield feature causing uTorrent not opening. Moreover, the incompatibility or outdated version of the software can be the possible reason for its frequent crashing. Here different solutions apply to fix if uTorrent not responding to windows 10.

Let’s first restart windows that help fix if a temporary glitch prevents uTorrent function normally.

Here is the solution that worked for me:

If uTorrent not opening, or display “uTorrent is already running, but not responding” then

Open task manager using Ctrl + Shift + Esc,
under the process, tab scroll down and locate uTorrent, Right-click on it select end task,
Press Windows key + R, type %appdata% and click ok,
scroll down and locate the uTorrent folder open it,
Now open the updates folder - delete all files and folders inside there

And now try to open UTorrent. did this fix the problem? Still need help, follow the solutions listed below.

Check for virus malware infection
Perform a full system scan with windows security (formally known as windows defender) to make sure virus malware infection (which is most common for this type of problem) not causing the problem.

From the start menu search for Windows security then select the first result,
Click on Virus & Threat protection - scan options - select radio button Full scan and click scan now.

Check Compatibility issue
If the problem started after the windows 10 upgrade, then it is a possibility of compatibility issues. And running Compatibility Troubleshooter probably helps fix the problem.

End uTorrent task from task manager, or close the application (if running)
Right-click on the Torrent shortcut icon located desktop select, and troubleshoot compatibility.
The troubleshooting wizard will appear, select the option Troubleshoot program
Next, it will ask, “What problems do you notice?”, checkmark the issue that you are facing, click Next and follow the on-screen instructions.
This will automatically detect and fix if the compatibility issue prevents the application to open.

Reinstall the application
Still, need help? Let’s completely uninstall uTorrent, restart your computer and then do a fresh install the latest version of uTorrent and see if that makes the problem go away.
