[shwetanshu]

Any bit torrent client is not able to associate itself with .torrent files on my computer?? The error given is

Failed to Write Data to Registry.

Then clicking on details in Azureus, it show the following:

Have you tried the basics first?
1. Right click the file while holding Shift key and choose Open With..
2. From the list of programs given, choose your Azureus client either by choosing from the list or by clicking Browse..
3. Enable "Always use the program to open such files" and click on OK.

One should always check the basics first before going any furtherer.
