Command Prompt question?
Whenever I use cmd.exe to open a program such as zune, a webpage, or pidgin i type: start <program name>.
My problem is that when i try it with utorrent, it doesnt work. Does anyone know why? If so, why does this occur?
I have utorrent in My Documents, so no matter how much I use it it doesn't appear in the start menu, and i dont want it there anyway...
I tried moving it and using start c:\program files\utorrent, but it opened another cmd.exe... I guess I'll have to mess around with it some more

Not every program can be opened from the run box or cmd line.
Here's an idea, click on utorrent from your start menu.
Hope that helped.

Make sure utorrent is installed in the same folder as the rest of your programs (typically C:\Program Files). If not, you'll need to add it to your Path statement.
Also make sure you're using the name of the executable file (which sometimes does not match the name the program displays when it's running).
