Downloads that I have set to open with a specific program automatically are still asking me to click OK every time. How to I get that function to actually work?

I have torrent links set to automatically open in utorrent. But when I click on them it still asks me if I wanna open it despite having it the box checked for "Do this automatically for flies like this from now on."

I just want it to do what it says.

If Windows that would be a file association problem and if that isn't working it means something in Windows is corrupted in that it no longer recognizes what file associations open what file set to.
