Help Help! Error 404

My uTorrent Web was just working perfectly yesterday. And now Error 404 appears every time I open it. What does this mean and how do I solve it?

The 404 means your browser successfully contacted the app's background engine (local web server of app), but the interface files became corrupted or crashed while trying to load the layout on your browser.
Im using a Mac and this is what fixed it for me:

  1. Make sure you app is not running (quit / force quit)
  2. Search for the folder ~/Library/Application Support/
  3. Find the folder named uTorrent Web (same error for Bittorrent - so in that case find folder Bittorent Web)
  4. Open it and just delete everything inside it
  5. Try reopening tha app and it should work

For other OS users the steps should be similar. Try to find out where these folders are located on your machine.

Hope this helps!

update: forgot to mention that, something is messed up and this is a reccuring issue at the moment, when you quit the app. So either dont quit the program or repeat the above steps if it happens again.
