µTorrent for Windows

bitlocker
Please incorporate BitLocker compatibility into uT.
For example, the unlock password can be entered (and encrypted) into uTorrent (Options), thus when uTorrent opens and begins to download data, it can unlock the protected drive and lock it again when uTorrent is closed.
Other options available could be alternative download drive/directory while uT is unlocking the drive, so downloads are not delayed and the data can be moved afterwards. Program uTorrent to create the alternative directory with access by "System" only, so that only uT can read/write data to that directory in the meanwhile.
If these features were offered, I'd buy…

Pause and resume buttons in Win7 taskbar window
Make pause and resume button in window that shows when you bring cursor over icon on taskbar in Win 7. Like on some multimedia players for example VLC media player or Winamp.
Or even to add button for scrolling individual torrents and then pausing and resuming them (but not that necessary).15 votes -
per session "downloaded in this session" column
We can see how much utorrent downloaded since started in the status bar. It shows total downloaded in a session.
I am suggesting a column beside "downloaded" column showing per torrent downloads. So, if status bar shows 1.5gb of download, then the column will show how much each torrent downloaded of this data.

Don't prevent standby if battery is less than 10%
utorrent can stop a laptop from going to standby mode or from hibernation. If it is running on laptop and battery is less than 10%(this could be user configurable) then it should allow the default action of power plan e.g to shut down laptop, go to hibernation, go to sleep.
This action is necessary to stop battery from complete discharging. Lifetime of old batteries can be increased by not allowing it to discharge completely.
I have the habit of turning my laptop on over the night for downloading. If by mistake power of the laptop is switched off then utorrent…4 votes -
Do a stable sort when sorting torrents by a different column.
Example: If I first sort by date added, then sort by status, torrents with the same status should remain sorted by date added.

Add shutdown feature, If the Internet disconnected more than 5/10/15 or more minutes.
I mean if I leave the PC to download, but the internet connection is lost and does not connected automatically, in this situation, I would want that the PC was turned off.

Better comment box
When I delete bad movie files with the NicePlayer SPAM embed I always leave a comment. However it took me forever to figure out where the comment box was. You need to change "Ratings" to "Comment" and when someone deletes a file you need to open up the already existing comment box in order to draw the eye to that location so people know where it is. Why bother with a special second box? That is just confusing. This will generate way more comments. Also, I suggest that you make the comment box the default tab that opens first and…

add label to folder before download starts
I suggest little to alter the labeling system. When you add the label appoint destination folder that you choosed plus label, BUT before you start downloading, not after. So files will already be loaded into the specified folder without moving it at the end of downloading.

Add all numbers (1-31) to the "days" combo box on the Transfer Cap dialog
Doing so would allow me to regulate my usage on a daily basis and from a programming perspective, is a simple job (I'm a programmer, so I know).

Add favourite folders or last used folders for downloads
I don't use labels, so it would be great not to select download folder each time from new, but see the list of last used folders for downloads or see the list of favourite folders.

Status: Stalled. Flag torrents with file availability less than 1. Especially if you have it fully downloaded.
There are some stalled torrents which claim to have seeds within the swarm but those seeds are not presently seeding. And file availability is below 1.
If you are in a situation where you are a seed in a swarm which does not have a complete copy between all the members of that swarm, without you. Your torrent status should change colors to cyan or something, to notify you.
Such as, when you have an otherwise completed torrent and still count as a seeder but the torrent is stalled because there's only 96.6% of the torrent in existence elsewhere in…

Prevent the moving of important directories
Today I had it download a file directly to my desktop, forgetting that I had it set to automatically move completed torrents to another folder. I was surprised to find that my entire desktop had been moved into that folder. I was able to remedy this quickly, but others might have more trouble, and it could have been worse had it been something more integral.

Keep download history
I propose µtorrent keep a simplified log of past download/upload data and a date breakdown.
It's not uncommon to be in a situation where the end user doesn't have any sort of hard data cap, but would like to retain information about their download history.
To facilitate this, µtorrent would need to keep a history of download/upload for each torrent (by name, or hash) used over a particular timeframe. Users should be able to view total data transfer for a given day from the log, and further view a breakdown per torrent.

Add a "today" marker to the scheduler grid
There should be a small marker besides the grid showing the current day-of-the-week to minimize human error.
