Windows 10: Torrent is installing other softwares!

Today i instsalled Utorrent and after few minutes i found out that the following applications have been installed without my authorization !?


Facebook , whatsapp , opera , avast !


i can accept if utorrent had downloaded the files of these applications in my computer without my access but how can it directly install them in my computer?

What is windows defender doing when an application is installing other application!


Had the same problem with one of my friend who downloaded the utorrent!



Note: It is just a doubt on how torrent had installed these applicatons!

:)

Default App for Downloading torrent files

George

You say a right click produces 'Open in New Tab' . . . are you right clicking the magnet file on a page in your web browser?

You need to download the torrent file to the downloads folder on your PC

Then right click the torrent file on your PC and follow the steps above

You are correct uTorrent or BitTorrent will not show up in the list of Default Apps because that is not really installed on your PC like a conventional App, it is simply copied to the folder I listed above when you install it
