But in 2.0.4 you cant select what files you want from a Magnet link :s

Im using latest version of uTorrent

It has to download the torrent file before you can select the files.

I know, but not for magnet links. Latest version can do it, thats why i use it

Does Transmission work for Windows yet? At least I read about it somewhere...

As far as I know this is the only currently decent (third party mind you) Windows Transmission client out there. There was another one that was getting some help from the official Transmission team, but that was in like, 2008 and it hasn't been updated since 2010 or so. I'm thinking that one is DOA. Mind you the one I linked is totally not from the offifical guys, but it is built from the latest (usually) normal Transmission client.

rtorrent, deluge, transmission, qtorrent. There is a whole host of alternatives for the discerning pirate.

I switched to Vuze (the renamed Azureus) for performance reasons (especially running on Windows 8); surprisingly, it's faster than uTorrent by quite a bit.

Transmission, Vuze, Tixati, Deluge and qTorrent are all available for Windows. Don't know what you're talking about.
You failed to read Vice's original post.

Clarification of the joke: It is not uncommon for actual pirates to post around, in a herp-derp fashion, that they only use BitTorrent distribution for their "Linux distros". Which is actually uncool for the ones actually using BitTorrent for such purpose --- like me --- that get targetted.

There's an unofficial Windows build of Transmission-Qt: http://sourceforge.net/projects/trqtw/

Now I have read that you can shut the ads off or they made it an option. I looked in the settings and could not see anything but i hit the (X) and they went away. I think my relationship with Utorrent has come to an end. It was a great run but . . . Im happy that I am not the only one that just noticed this. . I have a screenshot here . . I knew something want right. in windows 8 utorrentads_zps6b7a57ab.jpg

    • I am actually looking forward to this..... I think Dark Ages was way more fun than the tedious expansions for Doom 2 (nu-doom).
    • Pretty sure you will be happy with the result, good luck and take it slow!
    • Mixed thoughts. I do think MS realized it need's to re-focus on it's core while trying to get people to ultimate pay for AI. My windows machines is my gaming tower. That being said a windows machine I used as a server was just recently converted to no GUI Linux server (and it runs so much better for it's purpse), and general purpose laptop (non-gaming) that could run Windows 11 is using Linux. My work device is a MacBook Pro, and I have a raspberry PI acting as my DNS server, using linux. I honestly have more non-windows devices then devices. I don't consider myself typical user however.  
    • Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected by Taras Buria It is Monday, June 8, 2026, which means today is the day Apple kicks off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference, WWDC 2026. As usual, today's keynote will be full of consumer and developer-focused announcements, including new versions of Apple's operating systems, developer tools, and more. Apple streams its developer conferences, allowing everyone to tune in and watch the announcements live. Today is no exception, so here is how you can watch it. Apple WWDC 2026 will be available to watch on Apple's official website here. Also, you can stream it on YouTube and the Apple TV app on your Apple device. The stream kicks off at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT / 6 PM GMT+1. Apple's annual developer conference usually focuses on new software experiences, so do not expect major hardware announcements. What is expected is the "27" series of Apple's operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS. Apple is unlikely to introduce major UI changes, but you can expect subtle tweaks to the Liquid Glass design language, particularly on Mac. One of the biggest changes Apple plans to announce today is a reworked, AI-powered Siri. The assistant will be available as a standalone app with a chatbot-like experience and Google's AI models under the hood. If you want to learn more about what is expected today at WWDC 2026, check out our dedicated article here. However, if you prefer a spoiler-free stream, tune in at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT on Apple's official website, its YouTube channel, or the Apple TV app.
    • For we consumer readers, it would be helpful if you clearly stated in the headline if the article is about consumer or enterprise. Then readers will know if the article applies to them or not. 2 cents.
