-make sure that torrent is not blocked for you. If it is so, download the client from here .
-make sure that your anti-virus program/firewall hasn’t blocked connection (at the first launch on PC there is usually a permission request for connection. If you have blocked it, it won’t work).

Add the game folder in the exceptions of anti-virus program. 
Attention! There are some kinds of anti-viruses which are still blocking the connection, even if you add files in the exceptions or close the anti-virus completely. They are Comodo (100%) and 360 Total Security. In this case, the only solution is to delete them from your PC.
