Ultimate Guide to Remove Ads in uTorrent

Looking to remove ads in uTorrent, then use this step by step guide.

uTorrent, without a doubt, is the most popular tool for downloading torrents. Being very lightweight, it is the go-to choice for most of the users on windows as well as mac.

After acquiring uTorrent, Bittorrent Inc added ads for generating revenues. And because they were forcing ads on everyone, users were left frustrated with them.

Since then, they have made these ads optional.

But disabling ads on uTorrent is not as easy as it sounds. They have not included some checkbox or button to straight away enable or disable these ads on uTorrent.

Instead, you need to dig in some settings and change some settings. Don't worry, we have got you covered.

They do offer an ads-free version out of the box, but you need to pay for it. The ad-free version costs around \$4.99 per year.

So, in this tutorial, you will see how to get rid of ads in uTorrent without paying for the full version.

By the end of the tutorial, you will have a uTorrent without advertisements, and that too for free.
