Want to adjust the Windows Firewall to permit µTorrent? This clip will show you how it's done. So easy, that this video tutorial can present a complete, step-by-step overview of the process in about two minutes. For more information, including detailed, step-by-step instructions, watch this video guide. I just upgraded to windows 10 and now my utorrent won't download anything. I added the torrent but everything just sits in there with the status, 'finding peers.' Any idea what may be going on? I checked for updates, restarted computer, uninstalled and then reinstalled the program. Also, windows firewall is not blocking it. I would try that first and then if that doesn't work, try the cracked uTorrent Pro version that I'm using currently. Please post here to let me know if it's the update or not. There is one more thing I came across that seemed interesting. I read on Engadget that the new Preview build of Windows 10 has much better memory management. I’m wondering if has something to do with Win 10 (i’m still on 7). Which version of uTorrent specifically? (uTorrent 3.4.5 (build 41628) 32-bit) I probably also need a capture of the traffic, Fiddler will probably work.

Are you getting the You can only install apps from the Windows Store message on your Windows 10 computer when trying to install a downloaded application?
Well! You got this message when installing an application outside the Windows Store onto your computer. Since the Creators Update, your Windows 10 PC will prevent all apps that you download from outside Windows Store from installing.
This limited installation will help to keep your computer safe and reliable. However, you don’t need to worry as this isn’t a permanent restriction. It’s just a feature with options, which you can quickly adjust.
Turn Off You Can Only Install Apps From The Windows Store Feature In Windows 10
If you have used a Mac before, you will know this feature is similar to Gatekeeper in macOS. In Windows 10, this feature is enabled by default.
You can change or turn off this restriction by accessing the Settings app. Go to System -> Apps and features.
Then switch from the current option to other ones. There are three options you can select:
- Allow apps from anywhere.
- Prefer apps from the Store, but allow apps from anywhere.
- Allow apps from the Store only.
Windows 10 Won't Let Me Download Utorrent Kickass
By changing from the “Allow apps from the Store only” option to the “Allow apps from anywhere“, or “Prefer apps from the Store, but allow apps from anywhere“, the restriction will be disabled.
You will be able to install any downloaded apps without getting the You can only install apps from the Windows Store message.
Many users think this feature is annoying. However, it helps to make your computer safe and gets rid of unauthorized application installations.
In my opinion, I would recommend enabling this feature on your Windows 10 PC to block installing apps from outside the Store.
You only need to turn it off when you need to. All third-party apps that are already installed on your PC will still work fine, without any issues. This feature only prevents apps from installing, not from running.
I know that this feature won’t help your PC be completely safe. However, that’s better than nothing, right?
My Windows 10 S PC won't install some apps. Is that normal?
If you have a Windows 10 PC running Windows 10 S (such as a Surface Laptop), you may notice that it won't install apps from outside the Microsoft Store. Don't worry—that's the way we designed it.
By exclusively running apps from the Microsoft Store, Windows 10 S helps keep your PC running fast and secure and provides peace of mind by removing the risks that come with downloading apps from other places.
I want to use a different browser or search engine.
Microsoft Edge is the default web browser on Windows 10 S, and Bing is the default search engine in Microsoft Edge. You can install any browser available in the Microsoft Store and browse to any other search engine website.
