      I think you got two possible work around:

      1/ uninstall QTM and reinstall it into a not system directory (by default it is installed into the protected "Program files" or "Program files x86" directory and that works with Windows Vista or 7.Not sure if that helps, QTM might try to save the .torrent file into a protected user directory

      2/ Right mouse button click on QTM and select "Run as administrator", that is a special system account with more elevated rights and a user account with Administrator right (!) …

        decided to get QTM as I was told you can bulk upload images (I upload collections and people keep asking for me to upload thumbnail views for all videos not just a few)
        which you can but you still have to manually add them one at a time :(.

        Please can the Add Picture button be changed to Add Picture(s) and the resulting dialog be set to multiple files = true, these can then be handled with a foreach loop like

        C#.NET Example
        foreach (string file in dlgPictures.files)
        {
          //do current add image code
        }

          Hi, Self confessed noob here. I'm having trouble finding QTM on my system. I've downloaded and installed it three times but it's not showing up in the directory. Searches for it on my hard drive/control panel come up blank also. It's probably very obvious to you guys but not to me. Perhaps doing torrent the longer way is easier.

            Have you tried searching for '' QuickTorrentMaker ''? That might do the trick 😉

                  You mean you don't get QTM downloaded? That can be due to your anti-virus software, not liking unsigned home-brew software like QTM.

                        If I'm not mistaken, this is a known issue that is somehow caused by minimizing QTM after being opened. You may need to try running QTM again as an administrator, and make sure that you do NOT miniize it at any point.

                        If this fails, you may need to uninstall QTM, then re-install it to somewhere OTHER than the Program Files or Program Files(x86) folder. Be sure you run the installer as an administrator to avoid potential issues when finalizing the install process.

                          All right ran as administrator and hit upload it complied then showed no message didn't close the window and im NOT seeding. Is uninstalling and reinstalling the best way I always install as admin so I dont think that is the issue. Thank you for informing bout the no minimization thing.

                            If just running the app as an administrator and not minimizing it seems to work, it would stand to reason that you should be able to get away with just doing that. If you need to re-install it a later point, I would deal with it then as long as it works when you run as an administrator.

                                Haha… My bad... In that case, yes... I would suggest uninstalling QTM, then installing it again by running the installer as an admin and putting it in C:\QTM when it asks where to install it. From there, you shouldn't have to run QTM as an admin, but if it fails when you reinstall it as an admin, as a last ditch effort, then try running it as an admin. There is also a way to tell Windows to automatically run QTM as an admin when you open it normally. If you'd like, I can help you with that if running QTM as an admin is required to make it work after installation.

                                    I am using Windows 7 64bit.  I'm not sure what happened to my QTM, but I can't find it anywhere on my hard drive.  When I try reinstalling, I don't get the option to re-install, it just runs the .exe file as if I have QTM on my computer already.  Then it doesn't populate the drop down menus, such as Select Category, so it won't actually create any torrents.  I don't have a QTM folder or an uninstall option that I can find.

                                      You should find it here

                                      C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTorrentMaker

                                      and all that is there is an .exe file.

                                        I have checked there and there is no folder or file.  I also don't see the program on my Programs list in Control Panel.  There is a .exe file in my downloads folder, but, as I said, it just gives me the log in window as if QTM is already installed, it doesn't actually install the program.  If I log in through that window, I get the upload screen, but it's not functional.  I have read that I should uninstall and re-install to try to fix bugs, but I can't find the program to uninstall it, and running the installer doesn't do any kind of installing, just that log-in window.

                                          That is because it is a stand alone program.

                                          The file you downloaded should be named

                                          QuickTorrentMaker_1.11.exe

                                          The one it places on your computer

                                          QuickTorrentMaker.exe and it should have placed a shortcut on your desktop and made a start menu entry.

                                          Doing a search of your PC you should have those entries.

                                            Unfortunately, I do not.  All I have is the .exe that is in my downloads folder, that is the file that downloads when I click the link from the QTM page here.  When I activate the .exe in my downloads folder, it opens up the log-in screen for QTM, but the program is not functional, it doesn't load the Category drop-down so I cannot upload a torrent.  I have no way to uninstall and re-downloading from the website doesn't change anything except make a copy of the same .exe file.  There is no start menu entry, no shortcut, no folder.  A complete search of my computer all drives only turns up the downloads folder.
