Windows – Magnet links don’t open

64-bitbrowsermagnet-linksutorrentwindows 8

Since recently magnet links (from both Chrome and IE) don't launch in uTorrent as expected.
It used to work, and I have no clue what broke it.

When I click a magnet link in the browser, nothing just happens.

I uninstalled uTorrent (and removed all leftovers from Program Files and registry) then reinstalled new version (also tried beta version) and it didn't solve the problem.

I also checked the settings and uTorrent is set to default association for torrent files:

Here's the post I submitted on their forum should you feel to share some info.
