I've seen similar happening but I didn't find a fix, but I did find a workaround...

... Instead of opening the file directly from your browser, right-click it, save as, then open the local copy.

go to control panel, click on folder options then use file types tab. type in the letter T , scroll untill you see TORR you can then click change and show icon of client you wish to open torrent files . when you then click on a torrent even if it's lost in the temp folder your client will open and start connecting to peers , on the other hand if you want to save the torrent right click on it and choose save you can then put it in your BT-download folder
