Not sure where to post this so shall post it here. Some people who are unable to use the later LW versions for whatever reasons, after having tried the fixes here may need to use an older version. This might be due to their older operating system unable to use the later Java versions. Or might be due to their specific system set up. So I am posting some links to older versions of LW. Under normal circumstances these should not be used, however if you fall into the above category, then here are some options:
* If downgrading from LW 5, you need to see
THIS (click on link) You should be aware that all LW versions after 4.17 no longer upload to versions older than 4.14, thus you would be losing out connecting to much of the network.
Instructions: Click on the
Request Download Ticket at top left corner of window (ignore the advertisements). Then on next window click on
Download at top left corner.
LW 4.12.6 (might not be the offline installer so may end up with a later version), if so, then use this one
LimeWire 4.12.6. No version earlier than 4 should be used nowadays. They will most likely be blocked by later versions & other gnutella program clients.
LW 4.14.0 ____ LW 4.16.6 ____ * LW 4.16.7 * _____ Before downgrading, please see
Downgrading to LimeWire 4 from 5 & resuming incomplete downloads
You should check the versions here
Changelog - LimeWire to see what bugs they may have had at the time.
Otherwise, use
LW 4.18.8 version found here
LW 4.18.8 if
LW 5 will not install or run properly. (Edit: LW have removed their
'Old Versions' / 'Out of Date Versions' page from their site. !)
