Numerous things are happening when you first start up your Mac. uTorrent is among some of the applications that sets automatically to start up. You're minutes away from making a slight adjustment to stop uTorrent from starting up irritatingly every single time you turn your Mac on.

Steps

1
Open uTorrent. In the upper-right corner of your screen there is a Spotlight icon. Click the Spotlight icon (or Command - Space bar) and type in 'uTorrent' and click on the enter key
2
Go to Preferences. Click on uTorrent beside the "apple" and click Preferences (Command - , )
3
Click on General.
4
Uncheck the box. Under Program Startup there are two options. Uncheck the second one that says Start uTorrent when Mac starts up
5
That's all! uTorrent will no longer appear and run on your next startup

Question

Every time I open Utorrent, it adds itself to, "Start Utorrent when Mac starts up," and I have to uncheck it every time. How can I stop this?

Community Answer

open uTorrent, select preferences and, on the general tab, there should be a tick box to shut that down once and for all.
