Hello,

I'm trying to download the uTorrent software and everything seems to be going well, but when I try to install it, I get the following message:

"D:\Users\Toto\Downloads\utorrent_installer.exe

Unable to complete the operation because the file contains a virus or potentially unwanted software."

I've tried other "safe" sites and I get the same response.

What do you think?

Thanks

Hello

Quite a few antivirus programs are now flagging adware with uTorrent.

As mentioned, use the official site for downloading; there are also alternatives that work, the recent ones are listed on this page if needed, and some require less workload on the PC than uTorrent.

I should have written: VirusTotal analysis of the link etc.

It would have been clearer...

Thank you for your answers. With VirusTotal, there are 23 reports out of 73. This software is completely infected. I opted for the portable version and everything works there.
