Utorrent new update weird tracker

@toratora2 said in Utorrent new update weird tracker:
Today utorrent warned me of a new update.
I had a similar problem a while back: uTorrent installed a new version of itself (3.6, I think), filled with problems. I followed the process from john321 above and installed version 3.5.5. It's worked fine ever since. Be sure to follow that last step of unticking both boxes under "updates:"
to make sure the software doesn't "help" you again in the future. -
@toratora2 downgrade asap

I second this.... The latest uTorrent (3.6.0) has known compatibility issues with our system. For this reason, you should roll back to version 3.5.5 or earlier.

@john32123666 I'm trying my best man. So I installed version 3.6 by downloading version 3.5.5 from the link and unchecked the auto update and now I'm supposed to install the same file again from the link? Is that how to downgrade?

@john32123666 ok I downloaded utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 but it installed 3.6 I downloaded utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 again after I unchecked the update button and it didn't make any changes, still version 3.6
-
@john32123666 under help it says version 3.6 even tho I downloaded utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 and installed it twice and unchecked auto update after the first and sceond install of utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348

@john32123666 I agree, this is way past too much. one last time breakdown and then I'll leave it. I have a fresh install of windows 10 no uTorrent. I download utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 from the older versions link but it installs version 3.6. I then uncheck the auto update checkbox and then I install utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 again but it does not downgrade anything. Where am I going wrong or should I just give up?
-
@citydwelleer-0 as I've said once older version is succeded uncheck auto update from that older version to stop from updating 3.6 ...
-
@john32123666 ok I think this is where my issue is. it installed version 3.6 so I dont have anything for it to not update to so when I uncheck auto update it just stays at version 3.6 because that is what was installed when I installed utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 and because there was no previous version ever installed on this computer it it doesn't matter that I wont allow it to auto update since it never installed utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 in the first place. I'm really not trying to piss you off dude. I'm going to try to uninstall it and then disconect it from the internet and install utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 AGAIN to see if that makes a difference, maybe if it can't connect to anything it will actually install utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 like it should

@citydwelleer-0 try lower version under year 2023
Can you try this version
uTorrent 3.5.5.45291 https://utorrent.en.uptodown.com/windows/download/2159731 -
@john32123666 Thanks, I'll try that version now. Even with internet off when I open the file to install the older version downloaded from the link utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348 it says it's installing version 3.6 in the second page of the installation process, not sure how it is automatically changing the version
-
@john32123666 that link installed μTorrent Web Version 1.0.5.1933 (5880) I'm unfamiliar with uTorrent web and not sure what that is even, do the trackers work for that web only version of uTorrent?
