How to Downgrade Utorrent 2.0 to 1.8.5

UTorrent is a free program that allows users to download BitTorrent files. BitTorrent is a P2P protocol that delivers files in segments from both users who are uploading and those who are currently downloading. By offering the files in pieces, users can begin uploading a piece immediately after downloading it. The uTorrent client, currently at version 3.0 as of July 2011, can be downgraded just by installing an older version of the software.

Instructions

    • 1

      Download uTorrent 1.8.5. Some websites, such as OldApps.com, keep archived versions of software.

    • 2

      Double-click the file and follow the install prompts. Utorrent will now run the older version of the software.

    • 3

      Click "Options" then "Preferences" and select the "General" tab. Uncheck the box for "Check for Updates Automatically." This ensures that the program does not update to a newer version.

Tips & Warnings

  • If the program does not overwrite the new install properly, uninstall uTorrent 2.0 and then reinstall with the 1.8.5 install file.
