Starting Utorrent

Hey everyone,

I am trying to stop and start utorrent remotely with a batch script. It is able to kill the process but when it starts back it is unable to see the config files that are in the same folder, thus none of the settings or ongoing downloads are there so essentially it is starting a brand new install.

I am using pskill and psexec, I have the pulseway agent using the creds of the logged in user.

I am using the parameters in psexec to specify the working folder and specify the session, not sure what i am doing wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated

Script;

pskill  -t utorrent

psexec  -d -h -i 2 -w "C:\Users\Chris\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent" C:\Users\Chris\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent\utorrent.exe

Does the script work locally, if you launch it on the target machine in command line, without using PSexec?

Also, have you looked through the command line switches available with uTorrent - maybe you need to specify some more parameters in your script?
