Can't find where uTorrent is installed

[Peter737]

When i try to run i get error dialog box. IPFilter.log ipfilter was running fine before i upgraded to current windows 10 1903, using a fresh install. Ive tried latest version of ipfilter 3.0.2.3.

Hi. Please try latest release: https://github.com/DavidMoore/ipfilter/releases/tag/3.0.2.4-beta

[Peter737]

3.0.2.4 works. It opens and downloads the list with out a problem.

But it doesnt insert the .dat file in my utorrent. In the log file it states it cant find a bit torrent client. im using Utorrent 3.5.5 installed to default path. c:\users...\appdata\roaming\utorrent

[DavidMoore]

Are you using a portable utorrent or just the standard installer?

[Peter737]

utorrent standard installer. I have updated to 3.0.2.9 but same issue exists.

[DavidMoore]

Are you able to attach the log file with the error for the latest version of 3.0.2.9?

[Peter737]

my current install is windows 10 20H2 and utorrent 3.5.5.45828. IPFilter.log

Hi!

I'm going to make some changes and add an alternative way to "find" where uTorrent is installed, as it looks like the information is missing from the Windows registry. Hopefully this will do the trick for you.

I'll let you know when update is published; it won't be for a few days I think.

Wrote a script for uTorrent registration. Checks the current directory and appdata, and applies registry settings.

..if also add BitTorrent registration, can add it to the readme

- To localize strings into English, ask chatgpt. - uTorrent_Register.bat (save in UTF-8 encoding):

@echo off
chcp 65001 >nul

set "utorrentExe=uTorrent.exe"
set "keyPath=HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\uTorrent"
set "version=3.5.5"
set "localPath=%APPDATA%\uTorrent"

if exist "%CD%\%utorrentExe%" (
    echo uTorrent.exe найден в текущей директории. Идет регистрация параметров реестра...
    set "installLocation=%CD%"
) else if exist "%localPath%\%utorrentExe%" (
    echo uTorrent.exe найден в локальной директории. Идет регистрация параметров реестра...
    set "installLocation=%localPath%"
) else (
    echo uTorrent.exe не найден ни в текущей, ни в локальной директории.
    exit /b
