Transmission 64 bit is a fast, secure, and easy BitTorrent client for Windows. Unofficial Windows build of Transmission-Qt, in fact, a fork of that project with some corrections, many additions to support the use on Windows with many modifications to enhance usability -- this means its not exactly the app as released. This project may even disappear when Transmission's own Windows support becomes official.

Transmission is a well-known BitTorrent client, widely used on Linux and macOS, and with a well deserved good reputation as being a simple and light-weight set of programs.

By set, we mean that Transmission includes several different programs: a daemon its tools and its Web client, a CLI application, an application for macOS, a GTK application, and a Qt application. Good job and unique solution to have Transmissionon Windows! Features and Highlights
