utorrent 1.6xxx and utorrent 1.7xxx

Does anybody know to install utorrent 1.6 and 1.7 at the same computer with any conflicts between the two software????

you can put the .exe's in different folders. then create a settings.dat in each folder. this will make it use global settings for every user on your pc, if you have more than one user. :) i haven't tried it yet, but some of the old mods did it this way.

i tried this out and i wanted to run multiple instances of ut, but i couldn't. so i searched the ut forums and came up on this,



using multiple instances of utorrent.

1) Create a new folder
2) Copy utorrent.exe into that folder
3) Copy the .dat files from %appdata%\uTorrent into this new folder
4) Create a shortcut for this utorrent.exe in this folder
5) Edit the shortcut's target by adding /RECOVER to the end of the Target, outside of any quotation marks, and separated with a space.
6) Open this shortcut. Your settings should be retained, just edit the IP and/or port you want to bind to

Repeat for each instance you want.


i just tried this out and it works. i wanted to have 2 different instances because i use the stealth mod and it doesn't work well on public trackers like thepiratebay or eztv. it can get the peers, but the torrent doesn't start downloading. so i have the stealth mod running for private trackers and the regular utorrent running for torrents from public trackers. :)

if anyone can get the stealth mods to work on a fresh torrent from public trackers, let me know.!

i am using my own private stealth mod, which doesn't send <null> info in the announce string. trackers might detect a <null> string and ban you.

you can use an app called URLSnooper to find out the announce string that gets sent to the trackers. if you see a <null>, then it is a broken mod and you might get caught.
