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.

A test download and installation revealed the following: uTorrent Classic downloaded fine in Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 with Windows Defender enabled. The program was not blocked from being downloaded. The software installed fine on the same machine. Windows Defender did not prevent the installation. 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. Hi, Im new here. Never had a problem with utorrent till today. I wanted to install the new version because Im running an ancient version of utorrent (v1.8.5 build 17414) on Windows Vista SP 1. My problem is after I downloaded the file (utorrent. Exe) I cant get it to start. When I click it. 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.

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.

Why Won't Utorrent Install

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.

If you want to install a browser (or any other app) not in the Microsoft Store, you'll need to switch to Windows 10 Pro.
