I've been trying to install uTorrent today, and I've downloaded the installer from the website. I go through the installation process and at the end, the install wizard says the installation is complete, and I have "Launch uTorrent" selected when I close the wizard. Then nothing happens. I've tried reinstalling it, but it doesn't show up in my list of installed programs, on the start menu, on my desktop, and every time I reload the installation wizard, it acts as though this is the first time I'm installing the program. I'm at a loss for what to do, since I've already tried looking up this problem and nothing relevant comes up, just stuff like "installer won't let me install program cause it says it's already installed", that sort of thing. Any kind of help I can get on this? Thanks!

I was able to install this one, and it looks to be almost the same thing, so thank you!
Hi DistantFreedom
Have you checked the tray on your Taskbar to see if UTorrent is sitting there (you may need to press the up arrow)
For the most part UTorrent runs in the background and only becomes active when you download a Torrent Magnet link . ..
Try downloading a Torrent form the web, are you asked in your Browser if you want to open UTorrent?
Hello! Sorry you are having this issue. Hopefully we can fix it.
So have you tried to look for utorrent in your file explorer? It may be hard to find with the default viewer so try the tool "Everything" I will link here. Just download and install it and then search for your program inside it.
