Invisible Torrents

So you're in the middle of adding some torrents into uTorrent, and for some reason it hangs. Oh well, just kill it via Task Manager and add the torrents again.

Every time you add the torrents, uTorrent says "The torrent you are trying to add is already in the list of torrents. Do you want to load the trackers from it?" You click the Yes button, and nothing happens. Okay, you add the torrent again. This time you click on No. Again, nothing happens. What's going on?!

Apparently, when the uTorrent crashed, the torrents that are in the process of being added are flagged as hidden. Expand the Labels link on the left sidebar, and you'll find the torrents under Hidden. Either delete and add again, or start the download directly via right-click.

If you're not seeing the left sidebar, enable the Show sidebar option under Tools, or simply press F7.
