All it takes is to select the current user in that new window and add write access permissions for that user to the list of rights. Once that is done the torrents will download just fine without errors.
If you have most of the files downloaded, I suggest moving the directory where you have the files downloaded to something else, and tell uTorrent to only download the missing pieces.

It somehow always removed it, causing this mistake. For some users, the problem has been resolved when they have tried to reset the download location via the uTorrent client. It is possible that some files in the uTorrent app were corrupted during use, which could be caused by a faulty uTorrent update, malware, or even Windows bugs.
In any case, it is best to simply install a new copy of the software to rule out such a scenario. If the uTorrent app is not working properly, it is possible that some of its files were corrupted during the update or the update itself was not properly installed on your computer.
In this case, you can try manually removing the update files from your hard drive to return to the previous version of uTorrent. It is also possible that the problem with the uTorrent client is due to a hardware failure, especially the hard drive. If the program is having trouble accessing folders on the system, the problem may be with the hard disk or it may be showing signs of malfunction.
The uTorrent app may have encountered a temporary problem with its files, causing an error message on your computer. To rule out such a scenario, you can try restarting the uTorrent client so that the program can reload its resources. Right-click the uTorrent icon in the open folder and go to "Properties". In Properties, go to the Compatibility tab, set "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and select "Windows XP Service Pack 3" from the drop-down menu.
Scroll down the list and check the "Run this program as an administrator" box. This is a common problem that occurs when the torrent client tries to write to a file accessed by another process or application. Close any applications that could potentially open such a file, including Finder and Explorer windows.
If the problem persists, restart your torrent client. I have tried bringing up a newly formatted Windows XP SP2 machine with nothing on it no anti-virus, windows firewall disabled, no other software period but all critical Windows updates and just uTorrent and the Access is denied error pops up from the systray within the first seconds of trying to download a torrent. Using a static port of which has been forwarded through the firewall to my machines static IP.
I've been having the same problem, although I was using Bittorrent. I tried different ports, different torrents, and different options, also removed the "read only" option from the folder - and none worked. So, now that I've downloaded uTorrent, it seems like everything is fine.
Hopefully it won't happen again. Good luck! Yes you're right. Moved the folder and problem solved. Thanks for the help. I fixed it by adding "Authenticated Users" as a Group or user name to the Security permissions, set as Modify through Write, if you need more help your welcome to message on here. Win7 only. It comes up with "Error: Access is denied" and yes, I have opened it as administrator and tried changing the preferences and nothing is working.
I am having this same problem, but only with larger files. If a try to download a MB music file, it is fine, but if I download something that is megabytes it doesnt work.
