Is there an off network full offline utorrent installer that isn't a stub?

I tried uTorrent Stable 3.5.5 build 44954 but it's not a full offline exe.
https://www.utorrent.com/downloads/win

Name: uTorrent.exe
Size: 2982880 bytes (2912 KiB)
SHA256: DA42E4D2B88D5DDE8005742E640474BF4E136C85926D65F369 0075F4477547A5

When I run that with the network cable disconnected it proves to be a stub.

Warning:
The 'utorrent' installation process requires Internet connection.
Please make sure that yoyur computer is connected to the internet.

Same thing happened when I tried a portable app utorrent.
https://portableapps.com/apps/intern...rrent_portable

Name: uTorrentPortable_3.5.4.44520_online.paf.exe
Size: 3005624 bytes (2935 KiB)
SHA256: 5FC1D89B17CF3220661F33BCCAD81C3EF8ABC70823C745792D C710338CF7222D

When I run it with the network cable disconnected, it proves to be a stub.
uTorrent Portable | PortableApps.com Installer
The installer was unable to download uTorrent.
The installation of the portable app will be incomplete without it.
Please try installing again. (ERROR: SendRequest Error)
Installation aborted.

Then I tried sourceforge to get the full offline utorrent executable.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/por...nt%20Portable/

Name: PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_15.0.2.paf.exe
Size: 5117416 bytes (4997 KiB)
SHA256: 65E95458BDB40290D1207408834B6E8F9B20E3F374925D1885 103AF0D210EDE8

But that turns out to be only an empty portable apps downloader gui.


I use an old version 2.0.4 or 2.2.1
You can get them from FileHippo.

To make it portable, just extract it to a folder and place an
empty file called "settings.dat" in the folder BEFORE running it the
first time. It will keep all the settings there, instead of writing to
registry.
