UPDATE: Please do not use µTorrent anymore. They include too much bloatware. Instead use Deluge.
What’s worse than a toolbar installed because you clicked next, next, next, and didn’t have the chance to cancel ?
Well probably nothing, except when the software you install comes with some advertising that you didn’t really want.
It’s been a while that µTorrent started using advertising in it’s Windows app, I know people need money to live, but I really hate having ads I don’t want.
To disable that ungly yellow bar:
- Click Option then go into “Preferences”;
- Then go to the “Advanced” menu;
- Fill the filter text box with: sponsored_torrent_offer_enabled;
- Set it to false;
- Fill the filter text box with: left_rail_offer_enabled;
- Set it to false;
- Restart µTorrent.
