"netsh advfirewall firewall delete rule name program" syntax not working
It seems you are trying to use the "Program" parameter and value rather than "Rule" name in the delete statement.
You can run netsh advfirewall firewall show rule status=enabled name=all or perhaps netsh advfirewall firewall show rule status=enabled name=all | FIND /I "uTorrent" to get a list of the rules that are enabled to help location the actual name of the rule.
Once this is determined, you can run netsh advfirewall firewall delete rule name="<Rule Name>" and plug the name of the rule in accordingly for it to remove that rule.
Examples
Create a rule with the name "IP Block"
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="IP Block" dir=in interface=any action=block remoteip=<IPaddress>/32
Delete a rule with the name "IP Block"
netsh advfirewall firewall delete rule name="IP Block"

None of your attempts contains a correct rule name.
If not supplying a distinct rule name use (according to this help ) name=all in combination with program="C:\Program Files (x86)\utorrent\uTorrent.exe"
netsh advfirewall firewall delete rule name=all program="C:\Program Files (x86)\utorrent\uTorrent.exe"
name = { all | RuleName }
Required. You can specify one of the following values:
- The rule name of the connection security rule you want deleted.
- all. Specifies that all rules matching the criteria in the other parameters are deleted. If no other parameters are included in the command then all connection security rules are deleted.
