BitTorrent/µtorrent has stopped working

Hello,

For the past few days I’ve noticed that my torrent software isn’t working anymore, that is, as soon as I start a torrent, before the download even begins, Windows 10 shows me an error message:

It displays exactly the same thing for BitTorrent. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling these programs several times but nothing has changed. After doing some research on Google, I found a similar software, Deluge, I downloaded it and this time there was no error message, just that the torrent wouldn’t start... I don’t know if it’s related but before these problems started, I couldn’t open µTorrent because it told me that the file dnsapi.dll was missing. So I downloaded one from the internet and installed it believing I had fixed my problems for good until this happened.

I wholeheartedly thank the person who will manage to help me as it greatly disturbs me. Thanks for reading me.

    Download the Utorrent version 2.2.1 ---- March 9, 2011
    http://www.oldversion.fr/windows/utorrent-2-2-1-25110

    And do not take updates.
    Delete your current Utorrent before installing 2.2.1

      Thank you for your quick reply, Garage!
      I did what you told me to do, but another problem has appeared...
      Now, I can start my torrent software without an error message, but downloads don’t start and stay stuck at 0%:

        http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/207511torrentpb.png/IMG Not enough seeders for your torrent probably. Wait, let it go, you’ll see if it resumes. Check the availability of your torrent. https://www.cjoint.com/doc/15_10/EJlkyg2mWOa_Magical-Snap---2015.10.11-06.22---011.png Like me, there’s only one seeder for 48 leechers, so it’s going to be a bit long to download.

        I don’t think the problem comes from that; I’m used to downloading several torrents like this from the same site, at the same time and in a few minutes…
        And your torrent started downloading while mine isn’t starting. I don’t understand.
