Installation
If you're using µTorrent 1.8 or later you can skip the installation step.
- The WebUI.zip needs to placed in the same folder as µTorrent's SETTINGS.DAT file and DO NOT unzip it.
- If you have not moved the settings files then they will be found at %AppData%\uTorrent (type this in Start -> Run, or the address bar)
N.B: Please make sure you are using the latest build of µTorrent.
How to use the WebUI
The Port is either µTorrent's listening port (Preferences -> Connection) or the port you entered in the alternative listening port field.
- Enable and configure the WebUI in µTorrent (Preferences [-> Advanced] -> WebUI)
- Open up a supported browser and use the following URL format http://YourIP:Port/gui/
- If the browser supports Username:Password (and you have got the WebUI working with the first URL) then use the following URL format http://Username:Password@YourIP:Port/gui/
If you installed the files yourself and receive a blank screen when accessing the WebUI through your browser, you've most likely misplaced the webui.zip file.
N.B: When using the WebUI locally use localhost or 127.0.0.1 as using your external (WAN) IP may cause problems.
Known Issues
- Not all information is known in the general tab yet.
- Choosing save location for torrents is currently not possible.
Freeze on loading?
- There are two things to try if your browser freezes on loading before asking for help.
- First try pressing CTRL+F5 in your browser. This will either revive the WebUI, or you will see a blank (white) screen. If you only see a blank (white) screen then close and reopen the browser then load WebUI again.
- If that doesn't work then use the following URL http://YourIP:Port/gui/?action=setsetting&s=webui.cookie&v={} and then reload the WebUI using the normal URL.
- If that doesn't work then please come to http://forum.utorrent.com/ or irc://irc.utorrent.com/utorrent-webui to ask for help.
