There are a lot of "modified" versions of Utorrent 2.2.1 with malware attached to them. Utorrent no longer distributes version 2.2.1 - so anybody downloading that version is getting a copy from some unreliable, unauthorized source who is most likely baiting you with downloading their "special edition" which has malware attached to it.
Members. 2. Posted September 26, 2021. Hi everyone, My computer uninstalled µtorrent without me asking it. It is now impossible for me to download the application on my computer because it says "virus detected" at the end of the download. I have Windows defender and I think the problem comes from there. Do you have any idea how to solve this ...
Posted November 6, 2017. Looking at the URL on the screenshot, you're downloading the current stable. What you need to do is go into the Windows Defender Antivirus settings. Somewhere in there you should be able to create an exception, possibly on some sort of white list, for uTorrent.exe. Once done, uTorrent should download just fine.
Majority of my torrents over last 10 yrs download with no problems but I just downloaded a few torrents which won't download and I'm getting "Invalid URL" in utorrent Trackers tab and "DNS resolution failed for tracker" in utorrent Logger tab.
Try with a brand new (empty) settings file: 1) Exit uTorrent. Open uTorrent's data folder and move both settings.dat & settings.dat.old to another location/folder (you can then move them back if things don't improve). 2) Create a text file and name it settings.dat in uTorrent's data folder then launch uTorrent.
Click Start / Settings / Update and Security / Windows Security / Virus & Threat Protection / Manage Settings / Add or Remove exclusions. Click "add an exclusion" select "folder", in the page that appears browse to: C:/Users/name of pc/AppData/Roaming. highlight utorrent folder, click select folder. That's it.

When trying a second time, get the message "the torrent you are trying to add is already in the list of torrents. Do you want to load more trackers from it" After clicking yes or no, the torrent still isn't displayed.
It is an issue that is experienced by many people after the clean install (as you had already found on Google). However, you should try these simple steps to speed up your internet (if they prove to be helpful): Turn off Windows Update Delivery. Install proper WiFi Adapter Driver (s) Turn off Windows Updates.
Posted February 11, 2016. Make sure that uTorrent isn't being blocked by your firewall. I had the same issue, when I recently installed build 41712 update. After checking Norton firewall I found that the build version and the exe files were being blocked.
255. Posted January 25, 2022. You should not open any ports manually. All the ports used by utorrent are opened automatically. The issue Related to defender - PUATorrent:Win32/uTorrent - windows considering torrenting as "bad" activity, so they are marking torrent clients (not utorrent only) by that flag. Quote.
